Thank You For Believing

Thank You for Believing

No one said life would be easy
The road wouldn't always be paved
I've driven my car through some pot holes
But now I no longer feel brave

Afraid to face all that is waiting
As soon as I open the door
My dreams they lay broken and shattered
Scattered out across the floor

The time has come to swallow pride
And no longer stand alone
I walk where fear doth dare to tread
Where sorrows seeds are sowed

The path that may be right for some
Is not the path for me
I must pull myself together
If ever I want to be free

Thank you, I was blinded
The veil lifted, undisguised
Depression caused my heart to break
And pain to fill my eyes

I know that I am stronger
This battle I will win
Thank you for believing
I had almost given in

Sure life's hard, but the lesson learned?
Don't be scared to ask for help
I know how hard it can be
To break down walls you put up yourself

No longer will I wear a mask
Or pretend that nothings wrong
I've finally found the strength to
Sing the tune to my own song

Some say it's a cruel cruel world
But it's time they knew the facts
Life is what you make of it,
Don't forget! Now let's recap...

You feel alone and tremble
as your body shakes with fear
no matter how you scream for help
no one really seems to hear

hope gets trampled in the stampede
and anger gives trouble a boost
everything seems to go wrong
and theres nothing you can do

depression rules you ruthlessly
give up and they'll succeed
lifes too much, to leave is clear
By Deaths Hand Be Set Free!

My life is far from over
To self pity I won't succumb
Fate remains in my own hands
This battles not yet done

Yes, I have the strength to stand
And no, I'm not alone
And you my guardian angel
I'm sorry your covers blown

Someday I'll make my dreams come true
And spit in evils face
Thank you for believing in me,
I've finally found my place.
