lyrics

Invisible or worthless to everyone,
Anxiety is building and the burden weighs a tonne,
You fear the past is on repeat, the present sucks and the future's bleak,
And you pray for when your lonely days are done...

They claimed to be your friends but they lied,
And now you're hopelessness personified,
But before you cave to the weight of fear, and drown beneath a wave of tears,
I'll help you find the warrior inside...

The rebels' game had you at a new low,
They were building up their giant egos by crushing you below,
Mum & Dad ask why you're always so sad,
You try to explain but they don't understand,
That this shattered youth is the only life you know...

They claimed to have your back but they lied,
And now you're tragedy personified,
But before you're lost into despair, or broken down beyond repair,
I'll help you find the warrior inside...

I promise I'll be standing by your side,
Until you're hopefulness personified,
And I know they've hurt you a thousand times,
There are people on Earth with a thousand crimes,
But I'll help you find the warrior inside...
I'll help you find the warrior inside...
I know that there's a warrior inside!
I'll help you find the warrior inside...
