The demons I've been fighting have gained  strength
Help me save me before I perish
No amount of light can take me out of the dark
So shine your heart and let me see the love
I've been searching under the blindfold
Finding nothing within
I'm revolving around the emptiness in me
Hoping to find something I should be
Help me fix myself
I'm running away from what I am
Help me save myself
The reflections I see, they haunt me
A lot has changed, that I have not evolve with
Searching in vain, something is cutting me apart
Brother or sister, mother and father
The tears I'm responsible for
Couldn't quench the wildfires burning me
Before I become ashes
Forgive me my every spark and everything the storm destroyed
Do not watch me fade, I'm learning to be strong
The air is covered in smoke, but I'm breathing through toxic skies
My spirit leaves my body, I'm defeated by my flesh
I can't control myself, I cannot find whatever I lost
Back to my soul, I just want to find myself
Taken and gone
