they took away all that I thought that I needed

they made me feel like I was second best

they forced me to look deep inside myself

they said I would fall just like all the rest



self doubt it has a hold on me

I tried so hard but I can't break free



this pain inside me

it used to bind me

now I can feel it drive me

won't accept what they tried to sell me

can't forget the times they betrayed me

won't accept what they tried to sell me

can't forget they betrayed me



if you feel like you can't go on

look deep inside

you can carry on

if you feel like you can't go on

look deep inside

you can carry on



self doubt it has a hold on me

I tried so hard but I can't break free



when all else fails

and we're searching for our purpose

and the light is out of focus

look at all we share

our refuge that's abounding

and the love and care surrounding
