I know that it’s over
But I can’t believe we’re through
They said that time’s a healer
And I’m better without you
It’s gonna take time I know
But I’ll get over you
Chorus:
Look at my life
Look at my heart
I have seen them fall apart
Now I’m ready to rise again
Look at my hopes
Look at my dreams
I’m building bridges from these scenes
Now I’m ready to rise again
Caught up in my thinking, yeah
Like a prisoner in my mind
You pose so many questions
But the truth was hard to find
I better think twice I know
That I’ll get over you
Much time has passed between us
Do you still think of me at all?
My world of broken promises
Now you won’t catch me when I fall
===============================
it's kinda funny how a song could still stir the same emotions just like the way it did when you last heard it. even if it were some two long years ago. well, this song somehow defined a part of my life, and showed a silver lining to a future that is now. i recall painful memories without the hurt. you remember the same emotions, yet somehow they feel differently now. it's like reading your own diary and thinking the person in that book is someone else.
remembering the naive me, i thought that i could not get over the hurt i was going through then. despite all the high hopes i had. i guess when we are going through difficult times in our lives, we always rush past the hurting stage. we don't want to go through all the hell that we are feeling.
it's been a while. yet, i admit that unanswered questions still occasionally cloud over me. but i just brush them off easily (something i've learned only through time). it'll always be a better day as long as you learn to eliminate the what-if's of your life. for i know that in time i'll learn to let go of them. all of them.
well, this is all part of moving on. and there's no shortcut for it. but once you've crossed that bridge and look back at the lessons learned, priceless experiences of learning to pick yourself up to rise again, you become more determined to live as the person you're meant to be. you could see how much you've grown and how much of your hopes and dreams have been built little by little. for there's only a stronger and hopefully, a better (not bitter) you ahead.

i wish i'd be on that stage soon where the unanswered questions won't bother me anymore.
it's really harder to go with moving on and picking up the pieces (or rather their mess) when you're alone and you have no new other half to cling to (or to brag about). but as you said, there's no shortcut to mending broken hearts and broken dreams and maybe this is how we are designed to be-- a stronger person.
we're stronger than we think are ;)and we are so blessed to have gone through it all, without self-destructing. instead, we're far more improved now :)
