Lyrics
I'M STILL HERE [PRDX VERSION]
By Judy Calem & Jim Beggs
I'm still here...
Got my obsessions, my hidden addictions
Got my demons, my daily afflictions
I still have hope something better lies ahead
Hanging by a fingertip, down to the last thread
But I'm still here/I'm still here/I'm still here/I'm still here
Who's that girl in the mirror's reflection?
Who am I? Am I in the right direction?
Don't recognize myself in the photograph
It's been so long since I've heard myself laugh
But I'm still here/I'm still here/I'm still here/I'm still here
I'm still here/I'm still here/I'm still here/I'm still here
I will rise above the insanity
Free the darkness trapped in me
Overcoming rage, pain and fear
To fulfill my destiny
[Oohs & Final Choruses] I'm still here...
