When the darkness overwhelms you
Search for the light inside
Even when there\u2019s nothing left
There\u2019s always something to cling to
Hold on tight
Keep fighting against the odds
Don\u2019t let the darkness win
Someone out there will always try to hold you down
Break free
Find that someone or something trying to lift you up
And let them
And even if you can\u2019t hear or see them
Know they\u2019re out there
Draw on them if you must
Whatever you need to set that spark
Keep the fire in your soul alight
To push back against the cold and damp
You can make it
You can make it through anything
As long as you try<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
