Lyrics:


I can see
when you stay low nothing happens
does it feel right ?

Late at night
things I thought I put behind me
haunt my mind

I just know there's no escape
now once it sets its eyes on you
but I won't run, have to stare it in the eye

Stand my ground, I won't give in
no more denying, I got to face it
won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
if I don't make it, someone else will
stand my ground

It's all around
getting stronger, coming closer
into my world

I can feel
that it's time for me to face it
can I take it?

Though this might just be the ending
of the life I held so dear
but I won't run, there's no turning back from here

Stand my ground (repeat chorus)

All I know for sure is I'm trying
I will always stand my ground

Stand my ground, I won't give in
I won't give up
no more denying, I got to face it
won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
if I dont make it, someone else will
stand my ground

Stand my ground, I won't give in
no more denying, I got to face it
won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
if I don't make it, someone else will
stand my ground
