paroles de chanson The Rule - Grace McLean feat. Rachael Duddy, Ashley Perez Flanagan & Hannah Whitney

I used to be broken like you

Jutta?
Jutta, you were broken?

I used to be broken like you
Out there in the world I was too much, too
Nobody listened when I tried to scream
All I've ever wanted is to be free

How are you free?
You're locked up
Literally

In here I am in control
In here I am in control
In here I am in control
In here I am in control
In here I am in control

Out there I had everything people out there want
Money
Privilege
Beauty
A body
Out there all my having made me a prize to pawn
A patch to plow and to fertile on
An empty page to be written on
But all I've ever wanted is to be free

This is the only place I could go to get myself under control
To make myself whole
And now I'm gonna show you how

Wow, really?

You will be whole
You will be whole
When you are whole, you will be like me
When you are whole, you will move confidently
Through your life
And you will understand how the boulder becomes sand
And you will know how to not become sand

When you are whole you will never be scared
When you are whole you will always be prepared for a dragon's attack
And you will slay the beast
Or scare him away at least
And you will never again be the least

Why do you want to help me?
Why do you care?
Nobody believes I can be repaired
I did something wrong!
I'm bad!
There's a reason I'm shattered

I'll show you how to move on
And prove that you're strong
What happened in the past doesn't matter

If you are whole, what are you doing in here?
Why don't you leave?

I will never go back
There's nothing out there for me
I'm here to find the truth
And the truth will set me free
Because if can tech you how to be whole
I will see the light
That is my goal

When I see the light I will be free
When I see the light I will erase my history for good
And I will be made new
And I will be among the few
And I will be of virtue

But there's no light in here
What do you think you'll find?

It's different
It's something I could see even if I were blind
It's only in this cell that I can find the light
And only if you do everything right

I used to be broken like you

How did you break?
What did you do?

It doesn't matter how
What matters is I'm not broken now

I can be whole
I can be whole

It isn't easy work
You have to get down in the dirt

I can do that

Can you?

I will
I will work until I die
If I have to

That's the right attitude
This is how you become whole
You get yourself under control

I will be whole
I will be whole
