The echo of shame, the voice inside my head
The need for love, the insecurity

Cutting me down, to the fourteen year old girl
The father figure criticizing me

Go on - through the darkest night
'cause I know inside the answer's here in me

There's blood on my soul, for speaking out my pain
Perpetuating hurt in family
My mother in me - I cannot explain
My need for love from her will never wane

Go on - through the darkest night
'cause I know inside the answer's here in me
Go on - the shadowboxing fight
Disappears when all the music's here in me
Like an oracle the music's here in me
And I thank you god for music here in me

Go on - through the darkest night
'cause I know inside the answer's here in me
Go on - the shadowboxing fight
And I'll heal with understanding
And I'll deal with patient loving
And I'll make it 'cause the music's here in me
