It was over - long before - it was finished
But I held on - because I always have hope
So I held tight to the very last thread
And did my best - to ignore - what was never ever said
No words can ever silence
The screams I hear inside my head
Trying to convince me that I'd be better off dead
But I know better than to listen to that
It's just the reaction to a feeling of loss
I told myself it will always get better
Don't sweat the bridge - until its the time for you to go across

The other side is just what it is
Not much different than the place that you left
So what you need-to get some kind of new perspective
Is to keep your eyes open and your mind on your new objective
Moving on means you're leaving something behind
But you knew that long before - you - ever even thought it out
Confidence doesn't make acceptance any easier to comprehend
There  is always going to be some doubts
Associated to the beginning of anything that you end
Regrets will sooner or later fade into the scrapbooks of time
Where you keep what is now done and gone
Just like the darkness is always replaced
By the emerging light of each and every new dawn
Although sometimes the night seems like it will never end
If you just hang on - and persevere - you will find that your fear ...
....was all in your head
And it wasn't YOU that the echoes
Were saying would be better off dead
It was the darkness of regrets
The eternal nighttime of doubts
And the ability you developed to ignore
What was never ever said - all that
And the bridge that you finally crossed
That was what the echoes pounded
             into your psyche
As they bounced off the walls of your mind
             SO...
Let go of the thread - hope was always
The only thing you held onto so tight
And it was all you needed to get you
Through the long dark night
It was over-long before- it was finished
But I held on- because- I always have hope !!
