The Story

There's a voice inside that haunts me, it wants the light

I'm ashamed of this, it's on me to make it right

Sew the seams 'cause this is not the end

No, I will not give in this time

Not afraid of pain, I won't be tonight

Turning the page, finding the way

Learn from the fire

I've been burned and I've been bruised

But I face the demons with nothing to lose

Never let 'em hold me down to the ground

I'm makin' it through 'cause I write the story

In the sands of hate I've buried myself alive

Just to find my fate was to carry the weight of my pride

Sew the seams 'cause this is not the end

No, I will not give in this time

Paint me black but I will never fade

No, I won't fade into the night!

I've been burned and I've been bruised

But I face the demons with nothing to lose

Never let 'em hold me down to the ground

I'm makin' it through 'cause I write the story

I've been blind and I've been broke

But I find the answers the way that I know

Never let 'em hold me down to the ground

I'm holdin' my own 'cause I write the story

Sew the seams 'cause this is not the end

No, I will not give in this time

Paint me black but I will never fade

No, I won't fade into the night!

I've been burned and I've been bruised

But I face the demons with nothing to lose

Never let 'em hold me down to the ground

I'm makin' it through 'cause I write the story

I've been blind and I've been broke

But I find the answers the way that I know

Never let 'em hold me down to the ground

I'm holdin' my own 'cause I write the story

I'll carry the weight of my pride
