Jun 9
Woke up to a fading sun,  
Another day just begun,  
But shadows whisper in my mind,  
All the doors I left behind.  
I’m searching for a sign, can’t find a way,  
A list of choices, where did I stray?  
Got my heart on my sleeve, my dreams on the line,  
But every turn I take feels like a waste of time.  

Check behind the doors of doubt,  
Facing fears I can’t live without,  
Each one holds a piece of me,  
But none unlock the mystery.  
I feel the weight of what could have been,  
Every moment lost, another battle to win.  
With every step I take, the past pulls me back,  
But I’m chasing the Light, I’ve got the strength to act.

Oh, the nights are long, the doubts run deep,  
But I’ll keep searching, I’ll never lose sleep.  
Behind every door, there lies a new chance,  
A flicker of Hope, it’s time to advance.  

It’s a long walk to the end,  
Where the roads all twist and bend,  
Miscommunications led to Mistakes,  
Bad Choices, or Good Breaks,  
But I’ll keep moving on, my Friend.  

It’s a long walk to the end,  
Yeah, it’s a long walk to the end,  
But I’ll sing my song, I’ll rise again,  
On this long walk to the end.  
It’s a long walk to the end…  
It’s a long walk to the end.
