youjumbo - Gaining Ground Lyrics

I didn't know what life could be
Before you came along and rescued me
I have my fears, I have my doubts
I'm working through my problems
But sometimes they still get out
I'm getting closer to who I want to see
But looking in the mirror, it's just hard to believe
I don't wanna bring you down
You didn't pull me from the bottom
Just to make me watch you drown
I don't wanna bring you down
I'm working hard at getting up
And I'm slowly gaining ground
Some days I feel like I'm losing the fight
Caught in a struggle, shadows swallow the light
But your voice is a beacon, guiding me through
With every step I take, I'm discovering the truth
I don't wanna bring you down
You didn't pull me from the bottom
Just to make me watch you drown
I don't wanna bring you down
I'm working hard at getting up
And I'm slowly gaining ground
I wear my scars like a map of my past
Each one a reminder of how far I've come at last
Though the road is winding and the night feels long
I'll rise from the ashes, I'm learning to get strong
I don't wanna bring you down
You didn't pull me from the bottom
Just to make me watch you drown
I don't wanna bring you down
I'm working hard at getting up
And I'm slowly gaining ground
Please, oh please, just wait for me
I'm sure that I can make it if we both believe
I don't wanna bring you down
You didn't pull me from the bottom
Just to make me watch you drown
I don't wanna bring you down
You didn't pull me from the bottom
Just to make me watch you drown
I don't wanna bring you down
I'm working hard at getting up
And I'm slowly gaining ground
