I'm trying to keep my head above water.
I have to fight.
I don't want to go under/
I never pictured life like this.
I dropped my anchor down the wishing well,
But none of those dreams came floating up.
I felt like giving in,
The struggle was too much.
My life seemed like it was washing away.
I lost my way,
I've dragged myself to hell and back.
The scars I have to prove it.
I'm still wondering,
Is it even worth it?
