Don't Surrender

I feel alone Caged behind my own reflection Never home Being pulled in all directions When they look at me All they see is false perfection Cause this world still turns Even when you're in free fall Won't be the victim anymore Just like my mother told me before: Don't surrender Times are tough but we all get through it Don't surrender You're closer to the end, you know it Don't lose sight of your inner beauty Keep the light inside you shining Don't surrender Burning buildings Always escaping in my dreams Broken ceilings Crumble over this empty bed Notice me through my highs and lows Can't believe I've let my weakness show Won't feel sorry for myself anymore Like my mother told me before Don't surrender Times are tough but we all get through it Don't surrender You're closer to the end, you know it Don't lose sight of your inner beauty Keep the light inside you shining Don't surrender Don't surrender Pull yourself out of the embers Don't surrender We are beautiful, remember Don't surrender Life is short; you must defend her Don't surrender
