ANASARCA - I WILL NOT BE BROKEN lyrics

rate me

[based on "I will not be broken" by Robert Atworth]

Daggers of fear

brandish my skin

I believe I'm innocent

Of this sin

The accusation

of being a coward

bounces off

my rubber mask

just a word

They try to get me

to fall apart

try to get into my heart.

They circle around me chanting

wild phrases

They mix me up inside

vast mazes

But I am not broken.

words are useless now to me

action are decisions lost at sea.

I fight with the power to heal wounds

I fight with the hope it will be over soon.

I fight with the will that unbroken win.

I fight with the dagger sticking my skin.

But I will not be broken.

Now they try to take my pride

but all my tears have chosen to hide.

I cannot weep,

I cannot lose hope,

I must fight.

I must fight through the day

I must fight into the faded night.

Daggers of fear

brandish my skin

I believe I'm innocent

Of this sin

The accusation

of being a coward

bounces off

my rubber mask

just a word

They try to get me

to fall apart

try to get into my heart.
