The child cries, the mother begs,
The people walk by faster.

No one is willing to look them in the eye,
No one faces the truth.

The child cries, the mother begs,
The snow falls, blanketing them.

Morning comes, the child is quiet
Morning comes, the mother cries.

The angels take the child to the skies.
The people see nothing.

They keep on walking by,
They ignore the truth.

You saved my life and will never know it
You gave me strength each day
You have done so much more for me
Then I have done for you

So I offer you my heart in return
It isn’t much but it is all I have
It may be torn and a little *****
But it is all I have, it is all yours

Shadows dance at the edge of my vision
Telling me what I should say or do
They are always there for me
Always giving me a sweet embrace

I stopped listening to them years ago
They hated me for it, they left me
I have never been more alone in my life
Also I have never been happier in my life

We publish things under a false name
We don’t want the people we know
That we speak the truth
How we really feel or think
We are just a puppet for society to play
They make us dance and twirl and speak
Who knows what we actually think
Maybe the truth will come
When we realize that we are who we are
And that is all

They come so easy these days
The lies, the pain, the grief
It seems I am no longer me
Just a shadow that lost her heart

Cry
I just want to cry
To let the tears fall
To wash my soul
To cleanse my mind
To let the damage take its toll

Soon it will all make sense;
Why snow falls, why we love,
Why anything at all happens.

Soon we will decide on things;
Whether or not we go left or right
Or if we say yes or no.

Soon things will happen that will make us think,
Even make us lose faith in humanity
Or maybe even gain faith in it.

Soon we must learn that life goes on,
Nothing will ever stop that fact.
Keep faith in that life will go on.

Soon something will change,
You must not be afraid of change,
For without it we would not exist.

Soon we will find happiness;
We will also find love
And you will never know...
