Severing

So you're here again
The lights went out and they're forcing you to stay
You're choking on the words you have to say
But you have to leave
You have to flee
This can't be happening over and over
Over and over

You're defeated
They've tricked you once again
They have to let you breathe
So you become something more than
A hollow shell
Of your former self
A fading memory
Of what you've truly been

So you're here again
The lights went out and they're forcing you to stay
You're choking on the words you have to say
But you have to leave
You have to flee
This can't be happening

I see you
And every step you make
I feel you
Don't let this go to waste

It doesn't matter where you are
Or what you've been through
Know I'm still there for you
Right at the bottom of your strength
Know I will be there
