I don't want to admit that I'm afraid,
Terrified of none other than I,
Miserable at the thought of disappointing,
The standards that I set so high,
I don't want to let myself down,
After finally finding my smile, 
Another notch up on the pressure gauge,
Holding the steam in for a while,

I've got to find my strength today,
I've got to make it through,
I've got to find my reasons today,
For putting the blame on you,

I don't want to admit that I can't live,
If I realise what is true,
That I've looked away from the heat,
And scorched everything in view,
I don't want to fall again,
After making it to the top,
Another hurdle in the obstacle course,
Could bring me to a stop,

I've got to find my strength today,
I've got to make it through,
I've got to find my reasons today,
For putting the blame on you.
