In darkness I walked
With you I talked
I asked for your help
But there was nothing you could do
You told me I was weak
There was no response I could speak
You told me I would hit the bottom on my own
You told me I would have to climb out alone
Well I have seen the floor of the well
I have tried to escape but to no avail
I continued to reach for a hand that was not there
So there I sat and lost my reason to care
With no light to guide my way
With no fight to get through the day
I found myself alone with the truth
The carvings on the wall will provide you the proof
The strength to escape must come from within
If you believe you cannot do it on your own
Then forever you will try but you will never win
I have begun to find the strength inside
To climb out of the hole where I reside
I have begun to see the light of day
Now there is nothing standing in my way
