Down, down, way down I fell
Into a dark and lonely well
All the way down, deep in my soul
Broken and shattered, out of control
I'd been way down, working on my pain
Trying to fix what's broken and stained
But the harder I tried, the more I bled
Lost in the darkness, trapped in my head
I'm sorry that you couldn't haunt me
I'm just sorry that you couldn't hurt me
I gave my all for you, so you couldn't hate me
But in the end, I'm the one left empty
I am sorry that you just can't be
The one to save and set me free
I've never been so close to lightning's strike
But I was way down, so you couldn't find me in the night
But now I emerge, from this depth of despair
With scars and wounds, but I no longer care
For I have been down, and I have survived
And in my brokenness, I have found my drive
To rise up again, stronger than before
To embrace the light, and close the door
On all the pain and hurt that held me down
For I am way down no more, I wear my crown
So I'll keep climbing, with every step
Leaving behind the darkness, I once wept
For I've learned that being down, is just a phase
And I'll rise up, in love and grace.
