• I try to run,
    I try to hide,
    but still he's right there
    by my side.

    I can't escape,
    I cannot flee,
    whatever I may try,
    I see...

    He's always there, right by my side.
    He's always there to make me cry.
    I try to fight,
    to find the light.
    But for my deed,
    I know I'll bleed.
    Whenever I may get a scare,
    That's how I know
    He's always there.

    He shoves me down,
    back up I'll stand,
    'till with my blood,
    he stains the land.
    I won't give up,
    I will not bend.
    I'll make forever
    have an end!

    He's always there, right by my side.
    He's always there to make me cry.
    I try to fight
    to find the light.
    But for my deed,
    I know I'll bleed.
    Whenever I may get a scare,
    that's how I know
    He's always there.

    I get up;
    back down I'm crushed.
    I try to fight;
    but wind up flushed.
    I reach out;
    aside I'm brushed.
    To go on living is a dare,
    when I know he's always there.

    He's always there, right by my side.
    He's always there to make me cry.
    I give the fight
    and lose the light.
    I do his deed
    and do not bleed.
    For nothing now I ever care,
    that's how I know...

    He's always there.
