lyrics

How’d it come to this?
How’d I ever sink this low?
It’s tearing me to bits
I’ve completely lost control.
I’ve completely lost control.

I am confused!
I should cry, and yet I cheer.
You see the smile, but can you see the tears?
Are you amused?
I can’t open up so I conceal
I’ll show you anything but how I feel.
No, you’ll never see me run in fear
God, please guide me through to persevere!

It’s dawning up on me.
My own mother lost her faith in me.
But I refuse, I refuse, I won’t bend the knee
I will choose, I will choose my own destiny
I will scream I will bite, I'll stay up all night
I will fight! I will fight! I will fight!

I am confused!
I should cry, and yet I cheer.
You see the smile, but can you see the tears?
Are you amused?
I can’t open up so I conceal
I’ll show you anything but how I feel.
No, you’ll never see me run in fear
God, please guide me through to persevere!

Why?
Why can't you see?
You don't agree
I control my destiny
