"Stand My Ground" lyrics

Stand My Ground

I can see
When you stay low nothing happens
Does it feel right?
Late at night
Things I thought I put behind me
Haunt my mind

I just know there's no escape
Now once it sets it's eyes on you
But I won't run
Have to stare it in the eye

Stand my ground
I won't give in
No more denying
I've got to face it
Won't close my eyes
And hide the truth inside
If I don't make it
Someone else will
Stand my ground

It's all around
Getting stronger, coming closer
Into my world
I can feel
That it's time for me to face it
Can I take it?

Though this might just be the ending
Of the life I held so dear
But I won't run
There's no turning back from here

Stand my ground
I won't give in
No more denying
I've got to face it
Won't close my eyes
And hide the truth inside
If I don't make it
Someone else will
Stand my ground

All I know for sure
Is I'm trying
I will always stand
My ground

Stand my ground
I won't give in
I won't give in
I won't deny
I won't deny
No more denying
I've got to face it
Won't close my eyes
And hide the truth inside
If I don't make it
Someone else will

Stand my ground
I won't give in
No more denying
I've got to face it
Won't close my eyes
And hide the truth inside
If I don't make it
Someone else will
Stand my ground
