STAY (true story)

It's just another day
Nothing seems out of place
on your way out the door
you see the bruises on your face
you shut the door behind you
and start walking down the street
you know it's not too long
when you hear the echoes of their feet

As they surround you
and push you to the ground
You cry for any one
but there's nobody around
As the fists reign down
and the kicks come at your face
You close your eyes
and go to your happy place

Stand tall
You're not alone
We've all made mistakes
and we've all had heartbreaks
You'll be
Alright
If you just stay strong
and make it through...the night

You're in bed as darkness falls
It's just another night
Running through the horrors
and nothing seems right
You look towards the closet
to the rope that hangs inside
another night like many nights
and now its time to decide

Stand tall
You're not alone
We've all made mistakes
and we've all had heartbreaks
You'll be
Alright
If you just  stay strong
and make it through...the night

You get up from the bed
and start walking to the door
You're so tired and fed up
You feel you can't take much more
You beg for someone's help
As you drop down to your knees
Then you see, it's inside you
it's the help that you need

There is a burning
A desire for you to strive
You need to feed that fire
It's the need to feel alive
So believe and be strong
Let your power shine 
Cause in the trash is the letter
that you don't need this time

Stand tall
You're not alone
We've all made mistakes
and we've all had heartbreaks
You'll be
Alright
If you just  stay strong
and make it through...the night
