(Verse 1)
I’m so tired of fighting, for dreams that won’t come true.
Tired of fighting, just to be seen by you.
I’m tired of all the things that will never be.
Every promise that was never meant, for me.
(Pre-Chorus)
I’m tired of screaming, crying, hurting inside.
Wishing the noise in my head, would just lay low for a while.
I’ve lost my way out here on my own.
No telling if I’ll ever find my way back home.
(Chorus)
I used to know what I was fighting for,
Never thought I’d hang my head this damn low.
But this world’s got me beaten, worn down to the core.
I’m so tired of fighting for...
A life I’ll never know.
(Verse 2)
All these years believing I’d come back stronger,
Turns out I’ve just been lying a little longer.
Now I’m running on fumes, there's so little left inside of me. My hope, my faith, is running on empty.
(Pre-Chorus 2)
I hear the whispers, I feel their eyes.
Side glances cutting me down to size.
I keep on walking, don’t break my stride.
Let ’em keep talking, I’ve already done my share of crying.
(Chorus repeated)
I used to know what I was fighting for.
Never thought I’d hang my head this damn low.
But this world’s got me beaten, down to the floor, Broke me to the core.
I’m so tired of fighting for
A life I’ll never know.
(Bridge)
If I stop fighting, do I disappear?
Or is this the moment I finally hear
That maybe I’m more than this war I carry deep down inside of me.
But for now breathing is enough to keep me here.
(Final Chorus)
I used to know what I was fighting for,
Now I’m just trying to make it through.
This world can take me down to my knees,
But it won’t take what’s left of me.
Even if I never get to know,
That life I was promised, so long ago.
(Outro)
I'll keep on walking…tired and slow.
I'm Still standing here,
Even if I’ll never know.
