Hide the Pain
I sit here and think I'm depressed
The hurt and all the pain successed
Finally, they made me fall and kneel
No longer in denial, facing what's real
Yet its so hard for me to just fall
I can't let them take and have it all
All mine, my memories, mind and soul
I won't let them steal my role
In this life I will struggle more to live
To have to provide, something to give
Yes I'm on my knees and I am weak
But my pride is as it was, at its peak
I will not cower and let them kill me
I will conquer them, you'll see
I don't need to be healthy to fight
I can crack them with my will and might
Never ever, will my honor, I stain
I will always be able to hide the pain
