I Can’t

I Can’t

I can’t move
I’m frozen
None of this
I’ve chosen

But I will try
To break
These cold
Icy chains

I can’t see
It’s dark
I can’t see
Not even a spark

But I will try
To find a way out
Of the tunnel
Of the night

I can’t live
If I don’t try
I can’t live
If I don’t fight
So I will do
All I can
To win over adversaries
And start to mend

I can’t
But I’ll try
I’ll try
Until victory is mine
