I was always content to fall into darkness
To fade into nothingness
My light could only could only shine so bright
That it was blinding
If no one can see
What's the use in showing?
but you can see me
At times it only would seem that the hands that touch me
Are nothing I can feel
I was only looking at endings
Final chapters in a novel about ghosts and wishing wells
A finished story
And even the meaning behind it is lost
but you can reach me
I was
But how can I be now
Now that I've found you!
I was always becoming
But you showed me how to be
What I want to be
A rock on a shoreline
Pounded and pounded by the cruelest waves
But still standing strong
Still standing
I was always content with nothing
But you showed me something
Something about you is everything
Everything I ever dreamed
And if I was content to die before
At this point I want nothing more
That to show you love
And I'll burn as the brightest star
With all my might
I'll be a light
To guide you home at night
I was always content before
Now
I look for something more
I look to you
