Stronger

Every day goes on the same

And I can't escape this game.

I am falling, caught on fire,

Now I admit: I am tired.

But it feels like I'm getting stronger.

I am getting on my feet,

Understanding my defeat,

As the fire fades, I soar,

Sadness getting to the core.

But still, I'm getting stronger.

I stand up for the first time,

Sorry for my fights and crimes.

My light forming a safe spot,

I still feel the pain a lot.

But slowly, I'm getting stronger.

The light floats inside my head

Just so I don't feel so dead,

I want my whole world to glow,

But no one will ever know.

I continue getting stronger.

An explosion, some mistakes

Killed all the smiles that I faked.

Once for a while, I can see dreams...

They are better than they seemed.

Now I'm sure I'm getting stronger.

In the heavens, I'm alive,

Away from this busy beehive,

With the best life ever lived,

With all the things I have achieved.

I really am now stronger.
