Shades drawn across No light may enter In my moment of weakness And this world is bearing down again So hard to clear my mind Why do i persist? I'll endure another day Why do i persist? It's just so hard Just to resist Why is it so hard just to resist? I can't continue on So hard to clear my mind To see the thoughts I wish were true My face versus the stone And I blame myself Plague my mind with these insecure thoughts Whispers in the back of my head Telling me it's all wrong Why do I persist? I'll endure another day Why do I persist? As self loathing strangles me I'll endure another day As self loathing strangles Me! Push past the veil of helplessness Love can't catch me, not today Take your hand and just surrender It's just not worth it Why do I persist? I'll endure another day Why do I persist? Self loathing strangles me But I'll endure another day
