The View From Here

I've been in and
I've been out

I've been up and
I've been down

I've been fighting old demons
wishing they would disappear
Facing the reality they
exist within my fear

I've been broken and
I've been together

I've been kind and
I've been rough

I've been searching in the darkness
trying to find the light
Hoping for a truth to
help me win this fight

I've been at the top and
I've been buried below

I've been cold inside and
I've been hot to the touch
