Over and Beyond
I stand here,
Dead in the dark,
I try not to shed a tear,
Why'd it have to be so far?
I stand here,
Thinking of the future,
Thinking of fear,
Does it have a cure?
I stand here,
Thinking of how to succeed,
With obstacles at the end of each peer,
Wanting to show I am not another bead,
On another necklace,
Am I dirt to be stepped on?
I show how to be free,
Like a wild horse,
I know I am meant for great things,
That's why I want to go Over and Beyond,
To the edges of the earth,
Not sure where it ends,
Dieing for rebirth,
I shall not bend,
To your every whim,
I shall not cry,
I will not give in,
I shall not die.
I walk here,
Through vines of life,
It's getting near,
Will I be intertwined?
I walk here,
Looking for a light,
Waiting for the fog to clear,
Will I shine bright?
I walk here,
Showing the truth,
Ready to steer,
Will my mood still be blue?
I show how to be free,
Like a wild horse,
I know I am meant for great things,
That's why I want to go Over and Beyond,
To the edges of the earth,
Not sure where it ends,
Dieing for rebirth,
I shall not bend,
To your every whim,
I shall not cry,
I will not give in,
I shall not die.
I will run,
Into his arms,
Not shedding blood,
Into his care.
I will run,
Off that cuddled peer,
Showing my love,
Showing no fear.
I show how to be free,
Like a wild horse,
I know I am meant for great things,
That's why I want to go Over and Beyond,
To the edges of the earth,
Not sure where it ends,
Dieing for rebirth,
I shall not bend,
To your every whim,
I shall not cry,
I will not give in,
I shall not die.
I show how to be free,
Like a wild horse,
I know I am meant for great things,
That's why I want to go Over and Beyond,
To the edges of the earth,
Not sure where it ends,
Dieing for rebirth,
I shall not bend,
To your every whim,
I shall not cry,
I will not give in,
I shall not die.
So don't try to stop me,
I will only push pass,
Through those trees,
Through the cold, damp grass.
I will succeed.
I will succeed.
I will succeed.
I will succeed.
Don't stop me.
