A thousand hands around me now
Grabbing hold of my soul
Trying to tear it to millions of pieces
While I struggle to keep it whole
My heartaches for a happiness now lost
My eyes to see the light
My ears to hear a voice so sweet
My skin to feel no fright
The world seems so dull and grey
Even the flowers have lost their smell
A life full of sadness and worry
A life under a shell
My heartaches for peace and quiet
My eyes to see the sun
My ears to here a piano's notes
My skin to feel the calm
How can life be so lifeless?
How can it be so dull?
Why wont the birds sing once more?
Why cant I see the sun?
My heartaches for lasting friendship
My eyes to see face of joy
My ears to hear unstoppable laughter
My skin to feel at home
A good friend once so near
Now is far away
Longing for his presence, longing for his trust
Now my heart will ache.
