Hope Lives On

I hide behind a smile so no one will seeA little lost girl, and that girl is meThe torment inside is now mere scarsFake memories explained to those who ask
But what I felt then can never fadeNo time can heal the pain it madeFor me the blood still runs freshInvisible to others on my pale flesh
ChorusI know what it feels like to be brokenTo be hopeless and unwholeI know how it feels to question sanityAnd to wonder what'll become of your soulI know what it's like to be diseasedLike a cancer eating at your mindI know what it's like to be engulfedBy utter darkness that enslaves all it finds
Others may say forget and move onBut it's like the words to a favourite songYou know each and every single wordYou remember its tune though it may remain unheardThough others speak of salvation for you to mendYou know what it feels like to be condemnedWhere your own mind becomes your worst enemyAnd you struggle hard to simply beChorusBut there's a light beyondA place you belongThe strength you need in every songFor each pain you endure is like a featherWhere every storm you weatherGives you wings to soar heights untetheredHold on a little longerIt'll make you strongerHave faith this is where you belong
I know what it's like to be hopelessWhere all your joys are turned to noneBut hold on to life with both handsFor good things are about to comeAnd I know what it's like to be aloneWith no one to turn to when you are sadBut just because things look darkDoesn't mean things will always go bad
Just hold onBe strongYou'll find the place where you belong...
