I've stumbled more times then I care to remember but I will not stay down in pity I will not drown for I am a burning ember Animosity fans my flames When in despair and weak But I will never give in when I've a chance to win though I turn the other cheek But when I look into hazel eyes that tempt me and tease a smile gives you away I become a slave, ready to play and I fall upon my knees
