    1v.
    I will meet you head on, I will beat you with a grin
    My body betrayed by an enemy from within
    You want to take me down and proclaim victory
    But you have never ever met the likes of me

    1st C.
    I'm still here, I'm still standing, I'm still vertical
    You can take my body, but you will never win
    I'm still singing, I'm still fighting, calling on all miracles
    The wolf is at the door but I will never let you in

    2v.
    You whisper to me, you want me to just let go
    But I am stronger than you will ever know
    I will never give up or just lay down for you
    God damn you for the hell you put me through

    2nd C.
    I'm still here, I'm still standing, I'm still vertical
    You can take my body, but you will never win
    I'm still singing, I'm still fighting, calling on all miracles
    The wolf is at the door but I will never let you in
    (Chorus 2X)

    Bridge
    (Background vocals to the tune of "will the circle be unbroken"
    I'm still standing, you will never win
    I'm still fighting, when the bell rings another round begins

    Solo

    3rd C.
    I'm still here, I'm still standing, I'm still vertical
    You can take my body, but you will never win
    I'm still singing, I'm still fighting, calling on all miracles
    The wolf is at the door but I will never let you in
    (Chorus 3X then out)

    It is sparkling with life, defiance, strength and if anybody here is drowning in selfpity I sincerely hope they read this many a time, Bald Guy.

    An excellent song you made there!

    Beautiful! I love how the song progresses. Reminds me of something I would write (in terms of rhyme scheme and imagery) Keep up the good work!
