You Overcame Me I know I can't run, I know I can't hide. Satan grasps my hands in his. I know I must defy. I won't let myself stumble. I won't let myself fall in To this place devoid of love And full of rue and sin. I try to escape his words, I try to escape his mind. His grip on my hands tighten As I refuse one more time. I feel his voice full with rage I feel my anger rise. I remain calm t'wards him, Inside but a quivering child. I can't continue fighting I can't continue my will Tears of bittersweet are shed Through my body runs a chill I am no longer stable I am falling apart The cold tears burn my skin And stab through to my heart Softly I crumble Softly I cry I am always thwarted I never did defy He has offered me no mercy He has left my life numb He has me in his clutches For he has overcome.
