Survivor

Hold my hand, show me the way,

Help me to get through another day,

Hear my story, please listen hard,

Help me to take down this painful guard,

Please say some words, get through to me,

Help me to feel finally free,

I'll work really hard, I promise I'll try,

Even on days I just want to cry,

Because I know that I deserve this life,

Never again do I want to pick up a knife,

It's so hard to cope with these feelings,

But I don't want to be found hanging from the ceiling,

That's not the way I know that know,

And because of that, I'll get through this somehow.
