Sufferer/La Poderosa

Somewhere I lost it Walking the fence between my anger and its bitterness Do I call it quits? Does my sanity have what it takes to afford the damage? Fighting with everything I am to hold it together Looking back in shame and regret at all the ties I've severed I'm spinning out of control, I'm one half of a whole I've lost faith in myself, nowhere to go As I dismiss responsibility, avoid opportunity Just to achieve my temporary relief With death and hate as far as my eyes can see And every anchor of pain and self-defeat chained to me I laugh in failures face and I throw it away Throw it away Throw it away And the hell that I've paid Is nothing compared to the monster that I face And sometimes it seems I haven't learned anything But I will die before I let this world bury me Bury me I'm breaking away from pain and self-defiance I've found my way in faith and self-reliance And I can say I stood to face the giant But if I die, at least I'll die a lion At least I'll die a lion At least I'll die a lion At least I'll die a lion At least I'll die a lion "It's very important to accept each other as we are. And that's the beginning of love."
