Overcome
Where are the heroesin my time of need?Is my cry not loud enoughor have they gone all numb?
They just stand and stareout of the rain,thinking but not actingthat they're not to blame.
Falling and crawling...A fight to stand up...Memory still haunts mein the dead of night.
Over and over...I felt so small.But one day I'll be strongerand you better watch out.
I will overcome.Your violence their silence,although,it can't be undone.I will overcome.Knowing that I'm not the only one.I will overcome.It's the only way to carry on.
Where are the savioursafraid of the toll?Sorry, do my nine inch nailsslash your soul?
Such heroesthrowing stonesstraight at the one who is standing alone.
Twisting and turning...It's always the same.Truth is never honestwhen you're to blame.
Pushing and pulling...Never give in.One day I wishyou'll see you're not so beautiful within.
I will overcome.Their violence your silencealthough,it can't be undone.I will overcome.Knowing that I'm not the only one.I will overcome.It's the only way to carry on.
Run and run...Run and run...
I will overcome.Their violence your silencealthough,it can't be undone.I will overcome.Knowing that I'm not the only one.I will overcome.It's the only way to carry on.I will overcome.
