Silent cries escape, a damaged heart tears
e arth beneath us splits, we fight the battle
r epeated dreams haunt us, we're damned by fear
e very sound grips us, our nerves start to rattle
n ights of tremors, shadows form this man
i wake suddenly, wondering, who am I?
t hen my hearts races, as he starts to rant
y anking away my youth, I wonder why.
N aturally we gather up and run
C arrying coldness like a frigid a.c.
h uddling in a ball trying to seek warmth
a nd all that is there is a scared momma
i know the inner battle, the truth behind "i"
n othing you can do will shed the torn skin
s o guilt lingers heavily, til we lose our minds
Within our minds we see no end in sight
let me tell you, every dog has their day
As we stand up, we realize there's light
and the doors of our existence gives way
Strength will conquer nights of heated nightmares
and believe me friend I know about the fear
There is hope within the pain that you bare,
scars will burn deep, but your voice they'll hear
You have won the battle, no longer cry
for you are a woman full of courage
Stand up, be proud, don't let hope wither and die,
friends will need someone to accept and encourage...them.
To rise above the fear like you and I
and become a voice that will not back down
you are a rock of promise, stand your ground.
