Down Every Day

One thing leads to another
Were we made to suffer?
I feel despair, I feel disdain
I'm lost - lost this time
I don't - don't know why
We swim these endless shallow shores of pain

It's easy to sleep through life and fake the days away
It's easy to live a lie and lead ourselves astray
It's easy to cast stones and become the thing we hate
It's easy to kick someone when they're down -and I'm down every day

Broken, bastard son
But I'm not the only one
We are a light to match the sun
Struggle - unified
As one - galvanized
We're not alone, we'll overcome

It's easy to sleep through life and fake the days away
It's easy to live a lie and lead ourselves astray
It's easy to cast stones and become the thing we hate
You kicked me while I was down - and I'm down every day

I've been trying
I've been failing
I'm still standing
I will save myself

This misery has loved this company for far too long
I must break free
I've been down every day, but I have never felt so strong
Here on my knees
I used to fear the distance, now I realize that it's
Just one more step
Not alone - overcome - not far away
I will save my...

I will save myself

I am not alone
I will overcome
I'm not far away
I will rise today

I will rise today
