Vertical Horizon - I'm Still Here

I found the pieces in my hand
They were always there
It just took some time to understand
You gave me words I just can't say
So if nothing else I'll hold on while you drift away
Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive
Cities grow; Rivers flow
Where you are, I'll never know
But I'm still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one that's gone
I'm still here
Still here Seeing the ashes in my heart
The smile the widest
When I cry inside and my insides blow apart
I tried to wear another face
Just to make you proud
Just to make you put me in my place
But everything you wanted to take from me
Is everything that I could never be
Cities grow; Rivers flow
Where you are, I'll never know
But I'm still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one that's gone
I'm still here
Maybe tonight It's gonna be alright
I will get better
Maybe today It's gonna be okay
I will remember I held the pieces of my soul
I was shattered and I wanted you to come and make me whole
When I saw you yesterday But you didn't notice
And you just walked away
Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive
Cities grow; Rivers flow
Where you are, I'll never know
But I'm still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who's gone
And I'm still here
The lights go out, the bridges burn
Once you're gone, you can't return
I'm still here
Remember how you use to say
I'd be the one to runaway
But I'm still here
I'm still here.

Heard this this morning... got to me... not sure why.
