Haunted by thoughts, ghosts won't stop racing
Another night lingers, full of mistakes I'd chosen
Secure but miserable seemed the best way to be
Ignored all my wants, safety in misery
Lie down, breathe, put pen to paper
Thoughts can escape now that it's safer
One by one they come to life
Letter by letter, I string my strife
Free my mind from shackled regret
Forgive myself, I'm the only one left
Craving connection to one pure soul
Feel the feels, no longer alone
Begin my search for a love that's real
A kindred spirit who refused to kneel
Face unknown but eyes tell a story
Beautiful pain can lead to glory
If I sleep tonight & float away
I'll dream of words that I could say
Smiling eyes that light your face
Graceful thoughts that leave a trace

Free my mind from shackled regret
Forgive myself, I'm the only one left
Craving connection to one pure soul
Feel the feels, no longer alone
Begin my search for a love that's real
A kindred spirit who refused to kneel
Face unknown but eyes tell a story
Beautiful pain can lead to glory
If I sleep tonight & float away
I'll dream of words that I could say
Smiling eyes that light your face
Graceful thoughts that leave a trace
