lyrics

I keep trying to hold on to the life I've planned,
hitting each wall, a bit harder than I can stand

Yet I'll keep on pushing through the darkness,
never giving in to disappointment
cause I won't let the fear of failure define who I am

Every story, nothing just happens at the start
But the sure ending that I once dreamed of feels like its falling apart

Yet I'll keep on pushing through the darkness,
never giving in to disappointment
cause I won't let the fear of failure define who I am

There's a battle in my mind of what I know and what I feel when the fears take hold of me
And it blurs my sense of self, infecting me with doubts of what I can be
And I find I'm face to face with all my insecurities,
creating a distorted view of possibility

Each new day is full of promise for those who try
cause this life's not just automatic, you must grow wings to fly

So I'll keep on pushing through the darkness,
never giving in to disappointment
cause I won't let the fear of failure define who I am
