When you walk this road alone You gotta hold on to your own And be yourself Find who you wanna be When you're standing face to face Looking in the mirror with it's dead space Just hold on tight It's not who you really are You're somewhere, somewhere deep inside And I know, you're hanging on for your life Yes I know only too well Your fight to get by So don't slip away Don't slip away Why? You're the reason why All this darkness that you feel Stealing light like a lightening thief And running away And leaving here alone This is the time to remember when You once felt like a human among your friends There's always one of us To carry your burden through We believe you're somewhere, somewhere deep inside And we know, you're fighting for your life Yes we know only too well Your fight to get by So don't slip away Don't slip away Why? You're the reason why Don't slip away Why? You're the reason why Don't slip away Why? You're the reason why
