The Day is Near
Fear keeps us alive and going
The insecurities, regrets, mistakes
Could be overcome with one warm embrace;
It’s hard to forget and move on with the pain
With fear of it coming back
Falling in love with a new lad
May seem as the perfect option
But it’s temporary, it’s false, it’s wrong
You won’t find the love you’ve been searching all along
The fear of abandonment stays in your head
Knowing each face you see is temporary and rare
The love of your father won’t come from anyone else
As much as you try to substitute it well.
Feeling alone, getting hurt, seems so normal
What's wrong, what's right nobody can help you
Using substances to numb the pain wasn’t the right path
It only created a monster that can't feel you.
But once the sun rises, there comes a new day
One filled with new light, new love, a new way
Possibilities around, new memories to create
But until you love yourself nobody can either,
Self-love is the method I fight my fear
A daily battle I will always carry dear
But the day will come, I can feel it near
For my struggle, my pain, my fear of love to disappear
