In the depths of this mess
I rest from the stress
My heart is shattered
But my soul untested
Cautiously I plan or do I really?
I don’t believe I can go through the fire
Rescue me
Save me
I am falling into a darkness of recession
The last faint hope is severed
I’m lost
I’m lost
My fall ends with a painful thud
Out of the murk and into the dirt I emerge
Without the love and care of another
I struggle to find my way
Through trial and error I learn the path
The loss of affection has toughened my soul
I feel brand new
I see a distant light
I start to ascend to new heights
Never to look back on the dark past
I have no regrets on this road to prosperity
My journey to my endless destiny has begun
