Lyrics[]
I can see
When you stay low nothing happens
Does it feel right?
Late at night
Things I thought I put behind me
Haunt my mind
I just know there's no escape now
Once it sets its eyes on you
But I won't run, have to stare it in the eye
Stand my ground, I won't give in
No more denying, I've got to face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it
Someone else will stand my ground
It's all around, getting stronger
Coming closer, into my world [my world]
I can feel that it's time for me to face it
Can I take it?
Though this might just be the ending
Of the life I held so dear but I won't run
There's no turning back from here
Stand my ground, I won't give in
No more denying, I've got to face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it
Someone else will stand my ground
All I know for sure is I'm trying
I will always stand my ground
Stand my ground, I won't give in [I won't give in]
I won't give up [I won't give up]
No more denying, I've got to face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it, someone else will
Stand my ground, I won't give in
No more denying, I've got to face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it
Someone else will stand my ground
