I know a few broken souls
So it is for them that I sing this song
To let them know that they're not alone

Step 1 - bury those who hurt you
They aren't worth your precious time
If they rise from the grave push them back six foot under
Like they did to you back when you were just a lost cause.

Step 2 - dry up your tears and face your fears
Wipe your cheeks darling
Step up to the podium and scream for what you believe in
Don't cry, just believe and you'll see

Step 3 - stay true to yourself
It's cliché but you are you
And no one can change that no matter what authority they hold over you
To me you're the most beautiful thing that breathes

So far I hope you've got the message
I hope you understand what I'm asking
Are you okay? Feeling better?
Someone cares more than you think so you mustn't let them down

Step 4 - worry about yourself a little more
Yes you're the most selfless person I know
But sometimes it's okay to be selfish
It's okay to want what you can't have

Step 5 - now it's time to breathe
1, 2, 3, 4, 5...6, 7, 8, 9, 10
I'm proud that you have lived so long
But you have so much to live for
So it's not your time yet

Now let me tell you a secret
For a bit it's for you that I breathe
So for a while can you do that for me
Return the favour and I'll stay truthful

Step 6 - relax and let life go on
It might take a while but one day you'll be okay
You'll move on and no longer live in your broken past
You'll never forget but it won't haunt you anymore

Step 7 - put a pen to paper and make notes of all the good things
Remember everything that pieces the good parts of you
And shatter all the unwanted memories
You don't need to cry anymore

Step 8 - throw away the pain
Collect everything that hurts you
And burn them to ashes
They're merely bad memories now

I wish that this makes you feel even a bit better
That even for a second I can make you happy
You aren't broken, just a little damaged
Nothing we can't stitch back together

Step 9 - rethink your plans
Think about everything you've chosen
In future will that make you happy?
Rewrite the story of your life

Final step (10) - just stay there
And finally you're happy
That's right just stay there
Now this is your happy place, your safe haven

This brings me to the end of the stages of piecing it back together
Now you are healed, changed, but still the same
Now you won't cry yourself to sleep at night
You can breathe easy. It's fine, it's alright, you've won the final fight.
