i can stand on my own two feet
i can be whatever i want to be
and i can live my life alone again
i can be strong even when you're gone
know you know i loved you
and that i probably always will
but i can laugh again without your jokes
and i can smile without seeing you
and i can live the way i want to now
i am standing on steady ground
though you thought you'd ripped it
out from underneath my feet
my world came crashing down around me
nothing to do but put it back together
mend the broken seams
and though there are missing pieces now
pieces that you took from me
i look in the mirror and see myself
whole though i was broken
and i can stand strong in the storm
for i know that i'll never truly be alone
even though i'm without you
i can still stand up and say
that i can do anything i want to do
i can laugh and smile and dance still
i can be myself without you
i can
