Don't stay down for very long
I guess I'm lucky that way
I keep the darkness at bay
In the battlefield of me, myself, and I
I'm brokenhearted, so discarded
Feeling low but I'm trying to fight it
Outrun all these thoughts
Leave the lights on never stop
I know myself, won't second guess it
But I just can't take another lesson
The days they feel so long
I want a break from being strong
Am I the hero that can't ever fail
But secretly wishing for the fairytale
Though I'll climb the mountains, brave the seas
I'm getting tired, I'm losing steam
I won't let them know I'm starting to feel weak
I'm brokenhearted, so discarded
Feeling low but I'm trying to fight it
Outrun all these thoughts
Leave the lights on never stop
I know myself, won't second guess it
But I just can't take another lesson
The days they feel so long
I want a break from being strong
This is the point in the song
Where I say I'll be okay and keep it moving along
But honestly, I need to stay here
Face the feelings in the moment
Brokenhearted, so discarded
Feeling low and I try to fight it
Facing all these thoughts
Give it all the light I've got
I know myself, won't second guess it
What good is life if not a lesson
The days they might be long
But at least I know I'm strong
