lyrics

Hearts are made to get broken
That's how you know that you still feel
I'm doing OK, all things considered
Deep down inside though, I feel quite disfigured

But I'm doing better than yesterday
I might not be perfect but I'll be OK
And little by little

I'll be fixing myself up for you
With rolls of duct tape and super glue
One day I hope to be as good as new
So I can be as good as new for you

Parts are made to be ended
That's how you know they ever began
Me, I'm still breathing... still, my heart's beating
I'm still gonna give it the best that I can

One foot in front of the other one now
Keep moving forward don't care about how
Step by step

I'll be fixing myself up for you
With rolls of duct tape and super glue
One day I hope to be as good as new

So I can get a better view
So I can laugh a laugh or two
So I can be as good as new
For you
