Not Over



I remember the night I lay there thinking
Telling myself I'd escape it all
Everyone asked are you ok?

Do I look ok?
Every morning I realise I have to get up and do it all again,
I have to live another day as me.

I'd rather be anyone else,
Anyone who didn't suffer as much as me
They said they aint toxic
Yeh but their brains got sick

Almost as much I got sick of them,
I glowed like gem in a world of stones
I rose to the stars,
Farther and higher than mars

Everyday I review my dreams
Again and again and again
All the light were off
But I tell myself

It's
Not
Over
Until
I
Win

They may win the battle
But I will win the war.
