Roaming these empty hallways With dead eyes I see nothing of interest Roaming from room to room I see no light to lead me through the dark It's a blind stumble There's no joy And all I see are baren walls As I continue on walking I keep on searching with half opened eyes Partly wishing to find some meaning in all the emptiness Half hoping to find some light to bring back color to this dull life Cliché isn't it That it was you who sparked some life in me With a simple smile Simply acknowledging me It gave my life a little bit of meaning So I continue walking through these empty hallways alongside you The barren walls seem to have gotten some color The hallways don't seem as dark The lights seem to be working again Then others came More beings who spurred something deep within Something absolutely human It itself was light And it interested me A difference from the same dark So I continued walking alongside my new companions Together we all walked No longer did I search in empty rooms Or gazed through broken windows Because I somehow managed to leave it all behind when I walked through the door that led to the outside world To the life full of color Full of new sounds and smells To a brand new world full of wonder and interest But what's most interesting Is what led me to this world The friends who brought me here Who were the light amongst the bland And the friend who started it all So I'll explore this new world with him and the others To see what else I might find of interest To see what else might give my life meaning

Roaming
Roaming these empty hallways With dead eyes I see nothing of interest Roaming from room to room I see no light to lead me through the dark It's a blind stumble There's no joy And all I see are baren walls As I continue on walking I keep on searching with half opened eyes Partly wishing to find some meaning in all the emptiness Half hoping to find some light to bring back color to this dull life Cliché isn't it That it was you who sparked some life in me With a simple smile Simply acknowledging me It gave my life a little bit of meaning So I continue walking through these empty hallways alongside you The barren walls seem to have gotten some color The hallways don't seem as dark The lights seem to be working again Then others came More beings who spurred something deep within Something absolutely human It itself was light And it interested me A difference from the same dark So I continued walking alongside my new companions Together we all walked No longer did I search in empty rooms Or gazed through broken windows Because I somehow managed to leave it all behind when I walked through the door that led to the outside world To the life full of color Full of new sounds and smells To a brand new world full of wonder and interest But what's most interesting Is what led me to this world The friends who brought me here Who were the light amongst the bland And the friend who started it all So I'll explore this new world with him and the others To see what else I might find of interest To see what else might give my life meaning
