Overcome

Where are the heroes in my time of need? Is my cry not loud enough or have they gone all numb? They just stand and stare, out in the rain. Thinking but not acting, that they're not to blame.

Falling and crawling, a fight to stand up. Memory still haunts me in the dead of night. Over and over, I felt so small. But one day, I'll be stronger and you better watch out.

I will overcome your violence, their silence - Although it can't be undone. I will overcome knowing that I'm not the only one. I will overcome, it's the only way to carry on.

Where are the saviours? Afraid of the toll... Sorry do my nine inch nails slash your soul? Such heroes, throwing stones straight at the one who is standing alone...

Twisting and turning - It's always the same. Truth is never honest when you're to blame.

Pushing and pulling - Never give in! One day I wish you'll see you're not so beautiful within.

I will overcome your violence, their silence - Although, it can't be undone. I will overcome knowing I'm not the only one. I will overcome, it's the only way to carry on.
