Immersed - Allison Crowe

I will fight you

Every step of the way

No matter what I think

Or what you have to say

Kicking and screaming

Just drag me out of here

I will cause you sorrow

I will not endear

I am wide-awake

And immersed in confusion

Bare boned and busted up

Lost in disillusion

If I had just one

Little spark inside of me

I wouldn’t be so scared

Of the dark side of me

I refuse to shrink

And be something that I’m not

Just to be who you are

Just to get what you have got

I won’t accept restraint

I will not hide behind fear

I will be afraid

But I’ll stand up

I will stay right here
