Stand My Ground

Once I was so weak
Invisible to the eye
My voice would fall off as I spoke
I'd wait for no reply

Now the blood is flowing
From my heart into my head,
I swear before the night is out
I'll leave you here for dead

Your words, they hold no power here
My ears have fallen mute
Apologies don't leave your tongue
Indifference taking root

I will not let you drag me down
Further than we've gone
The horizon's finally in my sight
The breaking light of dawn

The misty fog you held me in
Is, at last, giving way
I'll stand my ground and fight for all
You took from me each day
