An ongoing battle
The absence of feeling alive is killing me, quietly
Longing to be true to myself, flooding my consciousness
It is too much to bear in my damaged mind, I must confess
This fear slowly erodes my will to live, it is a harsh duress
But I refuse to believe I am alone in this war of mine
I will not surrender, I will keep fighting for my own shine
Though it is the only thought that is still keeping me alive
The feeling of not being me is a battle I strive to survive
My subconscious is my foe, using my fears as a sword
But I will not give in, I will stay strong, I will not be ignored
I know I am not alone in this struggle, I will find my way
To be the person I truly am, come what may
But I refuse to believe I am alone in this war of mine
I will not surrender, I will keep fighting for my own shine
Though it is still the only thought that is still keeping me alive
The feeling of not being me is a battle I still strive to survive
I will break free from this cage, find my own voice
Embrace my true self, make my own choice
No more fears holding me back, I will be strong
And write my own life, all along
I do believe I am not alone in this war of mine
I will not surrender, I am still fighting for my own shine
Though it is the only thought that does keep me alive
The feeling of not being me
It is the only battle that I will survive.
