It's a long fight
i just wanted to run
i always dreamt of running
i was left in a bind
contract with the devil forever binding
my blood poured
forever pouring
my tears started to fall
i left my heart falling
when i saw myself dying
i finally stopped lying
i forced myself to go out
i slowly dug my way out
this hole is so deep
it takes so long to crawl our of the deep
every time i almost get to the outside
i’m shoved back inside
but I continue to fight
i will never stop fighting
