I take a thousand steps
in the wrong direction
To test the strength of my heart

I keep on walking past all these demons


I turn around
Take a thousand steps
back in the right direction

and continue walking that way

Only, now I know
for a fact
Nothing conquers my heart
I am as strong as I could ever be.
