I've been in a void
where darkness seemed to be light
Tell me what to do
Tell me what is right

I see hope fading
in my own eyes
Give me a hand
help me to rise

Be my light...
Be my light...
Wake me up
to a whole new sunrise

When memories surface
up the stream of mind
Do they leave a trace?
Or are they hard to find?

When memories surface
up the stream of mind
Do they make you reminisce?
all the things unkind...

When memories surface
up the stream of mind
You glance into the void
and there's nothing you can find...

We climbed aboard
a runway train
with a destination
that we didn't know

We plummeted into a tunnel
each one, searching for a light
We held onto each other
as there wasn't a glimmer in sight

We held on like pilgrims
waiting for salvation
But at the end, I had an epiphany
Sadly we were on the wrong station.

I dunno why I still care
When you don't think twice...
When your words slice
my heart just like a dagger

I dunno why I waste my tears
Over you without a reason
And even after all you do....
I can't blame you for treason

And then...
I spoke my mind
No usual filters...
and especially, no apologies...
No thinking each word twice
because I happened to be high
on my own emotions
which had been repressed
over the years
again and again...

And then...
he broke the silence...
with words that stung me..
and made me realize
that once again I was wrong
and no one can ever
really understand...me

Sometimes I fear
that his words of consolation
and understanding
are just a pretension

Sometimes I fear
that he secretly mocks me
each time I open up
to reveal the scars that cover me

Sometimes I fear
of his judgement
that makes me embarrassed and ashamed
of my own predicament

Today I sang for me
Strumming my guitar absentmindedly
Not for 'him' or 'her' or 'them'
uncaring of the reality

Today the notes rang
a little differently
as I hummed and sang
a song that's mine, entirely

Today I tried to be me
because I wanted to see
till where my song would go
in this life's high and low
