I had to run away and hide
Something happened in the middle of the night
They came inside without a sound
Suddenly my life was turning upside down
All that I could feel was pain
And strangers came and took my soul, away
Like a deadly hurricane, I know my life would never be the same
Where do you go when you're by yourself?
Who comes along when you cry for help?
I know I can't change the past but as the river keeps flowing,
I'll keep on moving on.
(2)
I'm hoping for a better life
Praying that nobody's story turns out like mine
The only thing I know is fear
Even those with good intentions disappear
All that I could feel was pain
And strangers came and took my soul, away
Like a deadly hurricane, I know my life would never be the same.
(Repeat x2)
The deed has been done
My spirit is broken
You gave me no reason
You left me with questions
Where do you go when you're by yourself?
Who comes along when you cry for help?
I know I can't change the past but as the river,
As the river, I'll keep on going on.
(Repeat x2)
I'll keep on moving on.
