I can see When you stay low Nothing happens Does it feel right? Late at night Things I thought I'd put behind me Haunt my mind I just know there's no escape now Once it sets it's eyes on you But I won't run Have to stare it in the eyes Stand my ground I won't give in No more denying I've gotta face it Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside If I don't make it, someone else will Stand my ground It's all around Getting stronger, coming closer into my world I can feel that it's time for me to face it Can I take it? Though this might just be the ending Of the life I held so dear But I won't run There's no turning back from here Stand my ground I won't give in No more denying I've gotta face it Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside If I don't make it, someone else will Stand my ground All I know for sure is that I'm trying I will always stand my ground Stand my ground I won't give in, (I won't give in) I won't give up, (I won't give up) No more denying (ah) I've gotta face it Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside If I don't make it, someone else will Stand my ground I won't give in No more denying I've gotta face it Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside If I don't make it, someone else will Stand my ground
