Still Here


Paralyzed by this thing

Stuck and I can't move out of fear

Stranded by the silence

I want to get away

 

Blindsided again by this

Hit from an unseen place

Leaves you shattered and shaking

Bruiesed and Bleeding

 

There's a cancer inside me

Eveloped by the unseen plague 

I won't let it control me

I'm gonna live my life

 

Don't be afraid, I'm here with you

I'll never leave or forsake you

When you feel like everything is falling down

I'm still here
