She sits among the pieces of broken glass and photographs Reluctantly releases the last of what was her past It struck without warning or did she just ignore the signs In those dark clouds forming behind those silver lines
The door it slammed like thunder and the tears they fell like rain And the warnings from her family whirl like a hurricane She's drowning in emotions and she cannot reach the shore She's alive but can she survive the storm
A broken jewel box dancer in pieces down the hall She's finding out the answers don't change nothing at all It's time she stopped searching for who's to blame or what went wrong The only thing for certain is he's gone, she's got to move on
The door it slammed like thunder and the tears they fell like rain And the warnings from her family whirl like a hurricane She's drowning in emotions and she cannot reach the shore She's alive but can she survive the storm
Someday days just roll on by without a gray cloud in the sky She keeps telling herself, "I will make it on my own" And her friends they've all gone back to their lives Thinking she will be all right As she races through the night to make it home
The door it slammed like thunder and the tears they fell like rain And the warnings from her family whirl like a hurricane She's drowning in emotions and she cannot reach the shore She's alive but can she survive the storm
