Nothing Else Matters

I've finally hit the bottom
The only way to look is up
God give me courage
Give me strength.
I can't find the will
To sit up, let alone stand
I close my eyes and pray
To find a way to carry on.
I open my eyes and see you there
You're holding out your hand.
You help me up, dust me off
Tell me I can do it.
I've made the right choice.
So I'm standing my ground
Thru wind, rain, and stones.
Every bone, every muscle 
will be bruised and broken.
But I'll know
I stayed true to you.
