It rises in the silence a shadow in my mind
A weight I never asked for a battle undefined
Pressure like a pounding storm no warning no retreat
I fight against the unseen force the ground beneath my feet
The monster whispers "You are mine"
Its claws dig deep inside my spine
I won't surrender though it screams
I'll break its hold and tear the seams
You can't crush my soul no matter how you try
I'll meet you in the darkness let the sparks fly
Through the ache and the fire I'll stand and defy
This monster won't take me; I refuse to die
Every step is heavy but I drag myself along
The echoes in my head a twisted burning song
It feeds on doubt on every crack it finds
But strength is born from battles fought inside
The monster roars "You can't prevail"
Its grip is tight my body frail
But I see light beyond the haze
The flames will turn this war ablaze
You can't crush my soul no matter how you try
I'll meet you in the darkness let the sparks fly
Through the ache and the fire I'll stand and defy
This monster won't take me; I refuse to die
Pressure rising head's about to break
But in this fight there's no give no take
I am the warrior I'll claim my throne
This battle is mine I'm not alone
You can't crush my soul no matter how you try
I'll meet you in the darkness let the sparks fly
Through the ache and the fire I'll stand and defy
This monster won't take me; I refuse to die
I rise from the ruins the shadow grows small
This fight isn't over but I'll answer the call
I wear every scar like a crown on my head
I live for the living; I'm not done yet
I'm not done yet
I rise from the ruins the shadow grows small
This fight isn't over but I'll answer the call
I wear every scar like a crown on my head
I live for the living; I'm not done yet
I'm not done yet
