I am merely the product,
Of the life that I've lived,
An amalgam of sorrows,
And the wisdom they give.

But the weight has grown heavy,
And it's dragging me down.
It's so hard not to sink now,
But I don't want to drown.

I'm damaged,
But somehow I've managed,
This far,
But I don't know if I can find my way back home.
I'm damaged,
But somehow I've managed,
For now,
But I don't think I can face this on my own.

There is beauty in hardship,
There are poems in grief,
There are trials we must go through,
Though they may shake our beliefs.

But I don't know how I got here,
Lost in the cynical dusk,
Set adrift in the worry,
That I've no-one to trust.

I'm damaged,
But somehow I've managed,
This far,
But I don't know if I can find my way back home.
I'm damaged,
But somehow I've managed,
For now,
But I don't think I can face this on my own.

If to suffer is holy,
I'll take my share of the pain.
I can swim through this sadness,
If there's something to gain.

I can reach for the surface,
And try to pull myself free.
But the last thing I want is,
To drag you down here with me.

I'm damaged,
But somehow I've managed,
This far,
But I don't know if I can find my way back home.
I'm damaged,
But somehow I've managed,
For now,
But I don't think I can face this on my own.
