I stare at this. This cold, black abyss
Two lunatic eyes stare back, something’s amiss
They pierce my soul, like Hell just found me
I scream at my own soul, it’s just an alley
My legs trudge on, but my heart’s out of gas
The confines of my mind wait for time to pass
It’s quite futile, really, the eyes are still there
They’re waiting for me to break, in the middle of nowhere
My conscience tells me to stop, turn ‘round and go back
Tellin’ me, that there’s too many things I lack
Didn’t stop there, it told me I’m too scared
Can’t do anythin’ about it, life is not fair
The eyes get the message, I’m going to defy them
They tried once again, I watched their pupils widen
But my eyes are even fiercer, they can’t break my wall
Courage is invincible, won’t let my spirit fall
Despite the fact that it’s dark, like fresh rolls of coal
Courage is forged within me, my
Mind
Body
And soul.
