I decided for myself that I had given up
But even at my lowest I felt myself descending
I have felt the pain
I've been trough the trials
Now that they are over
I've become so much more
See my pain and mistakes I've made
And watch me rise from the gutter
Life is not a rat race
I'll take this at my own pace
And leave my dismay behind me
Thinking back to those times when
I lost all hope
Rock bottom and still sinking deeper
Just waiting for my conscious to tell me
I've reached the worst of times
and it can only get better
Still I have this sinking feeling
Anticipating things to only get worse
As bandages to gashes I only mask the problem until everything goes as dark as it feels to me
I will recover from this
Show your pain
Show your pain
Paint it on the walls
One day your loss will be your gain
Show your pain
Paint it on the walls
One day your loss will be your gain
(Because) I have felt the pain
(And) I've been trough the trials
Now (I can say) that they're over
(That) I feel I've become so much more
Because I've felt the pain
And I've been trough the trials
Now I can say that they're over
That I feel I've become so much more
So much more
Our paths, not chosen or set in stone as it may seem
You make these choices on your own
So wake up and believe
So wake up and believe this life that you live is your own
