Annah Mac - Here I Stand lyrics

rate me

It's dark and I'm

Trying to find

A state of mind where I can hide away

Knocking on people's doors

Greeted with open arms

But it's no secret, I'm not welcome where I stay

And I've been struggling on

Trying to belong

To face after familiar face

But I give in to fear

And a curtained room

With no comfort but the warmth in his embrace

Oh

Oh if I could say

Without being afraid

Or him raising a hand

I'd say you know I have hopes

I have dreams and I have

The right to make a stand

So here is the line

The line to my place

The place that I call my own

And you will leave me alone

'Coz

Here I stand

It's cold outside

Crouched by a light

Holding up pictures in the same hand as my smoke

How happy I was then

Look at my smile

I must have been on dope

How the times have changed

How little danger

I get into by choice

Kids they keep me sane

Numb from the pain

'Coz they know how to raise their voices

Oh

Oh if I could say

Without being afraid

Or him raising a hand

I'd say you know I have hopes

I have some dreams

And I have the right to make a stand

So here is the line

The line to my place

The place that I call my own

And tell them

Here I stand

Here I stand

Here I stand

Here I stand

Oh if I could say

Without being afraid

Or him raising a hand

I'd say you know I have hopes

I have some dreams

And I have the right to make a stand

So here is the line

The line to my place

The place that I call my own

And tell them all

Here I stand

Oh 'cuz

Here I stand
