Fear I Can'T Let Go
Look me in the eyes
Tell me what I mean to you
And a little pain dies
Knowing we'll make it through
I feel the past in me
The scars on my skin
But I wonder if you see
All the scars that are within
Chorus:
I have been cheated
I've been wronged
I've felt defeated
But still gone on
I hide the pain
Cuz I don't want them to know
That all that will remain
Is fear I can't let go
Verse 2:
I feel safest here
Amongst the shadows
So used to being near
The darkness that grows
It overtakes me once in a while
Makes me feel alive
And I can't help but smile
Cuz I know I'll always survive!!!
Chorus x1
Bridge:
I've been beaten
I've been used
All the mistreating
From being abused.
Yet here I stand now
Not showing all the scars
Made it through hell somehow
Now I'm shooting to the stars!!
Chorus x2
