I know,
I have been fading,
I'll be back soon,
when I'm better.
The pain,
of living is harder,
when you don't want,
to live anymore.
I can't keep heading down the path,
I'm heading down,
I'm fading fast.
I can only fall to my knees so many times,
before it's too late,
and I run out of time.
Please help me walk,
keep me standing.
Don't let me fall,
I need a savior.
The burden I carry,
is weighing down on me.
I can't keep traveling,
with this weight on my back.
I'll pull myself to my feet,
only to fall again,
in defeat.
And I will not hesitate,
to stand again,
to fight once more,
to make a stand.
So help me now,
before it's too late.
Before I fall and can't get up,
and seal my own fate.
