This dark world called pessimism seems to be captivating me
Holding me back
Taking control of my emotions
Being the hours and minutes to my days
Controlling the thoughts in my brain
Following me during the day
Frightening through the night
Its closing in on me
Turning my every light into darkness
Creating an end to every beginning
Turning every sweetness into sour
Overwriting my happiness into pain
It wont let me go and find what I must be
It wont let me go and seek
But instead causes me to weep
It has become my shadow
following me everywhere
Its time I turn away
Concerntrate on me
My future, my destiny
Not anymore will this dark world encave me
Cause I now I see this promising light called "hope"
I will produce a better me
Cause I hold all keys to my success
Keep all dreams and pride alive
Keep my candle of hope forever burnning
It has captured me
Oh so softly
Telling me"Girl you worth alot"
It has me breathing with joy
Cant that dark world encave me again
Cause this thing called hope got my back
I'll break my enemies me down with this hope
Show them I can be
Show them hope is what I need to live and survive
Cause I have escaped that dark world
And forever that will be


Bring it Back
