I fight everything
To not turn back
To not run away
But my eyes still
Land on her face
My feet become rooted
In the ground
My heart twists
In my chest
Reminding me of
Her
I know I can never
Return here
But that sweet
Little girl needs
Me
All the strength
Left in me
Cranes back my
Neck to
The road ahead
I can't stop
My feet weigh
Me down
But I pick them
Up and place
Them forward
One step
At a time
Still I'll never
Forget the little girl
I used to be

I give up everything for you
At the drop of a hat
I tear myself apart for your happiness
Even though you're still sad
I do everything to fix the problem
While knowing damn well I am the problem.
You're always the victim
All "poor woh is me"
Until you get caught
Until you hurt me
What would happen
If the roles were reversed
If you were stuck chasing
Unknown is the world we live in
How deep is the ocean?
How big is the universe?
It's unknown
So why try to figure it out?
Why try to swim deeper than you can?
