I'm surrounded by a sea of people
As far as the eye can see
All flowing in the same direction
And just floating along, is me

I've been wading in this water
Letting it carry me any way
Not caring about which direction
And never having any say

After wading all this time though
My legs started growing tired
So finally it was time to choose
Which direction I desired

But the problem with floating along
Was that I never became aware
I wasn't really a part of the waves
I was just sort of...there

What I wanted didn't matter
The waves still moved as one
Whether I moved with or against them
Didn't matter in the long run

Then I thought I better get out
And give myself some time to think
But I couldn't see the shore anymore
And with that, I started to sink

Now I'm surrounded by a sea of people
As far as the eye can see
All still flowing in the same direction
But drowning in it, is me

It's hard to wait for something that may never come
It's hard to hear the tune of a song that's never sung
It's hard to not let go
When you're hanging by a thread

When you push feelings back so they don't enter your mind
You push things away that are meant to live inside
When you put yourself in charge and think that you're done
You realize the one that should be in charge is The One.

Sometimes He calls to us in a roar
Sometimes I can't hear Him while the rain pours
I know He just wants me to hold on to hope
But that's a hard thing to cling to when you don't even know how to cope

I wonder sometimes if this hard road will end
I feel often unsure of the twists and the bends
This body of mine is feeble and weak
But He is the strong one and I know He will speak

And this I have pondered many a day
Why I can't let this go, I cannot say
But this is one thing I know and I treasure
Whenever I fall, He says to me and all the world, "I will catch her."

i stand before the reflecting glass
and glower at the green lights looming at me
my thoughts scamper
and i reach for anything
to **** the pain

Wipe me away.
Come into my field of dandelions and blow your great wind.
Shake my earth and tear down my buildings.
It does not matter, I relish the thought
To build once more, anew and learn'ed.
To build with you, a life of wonder return'ed.

The fire burns, lost it's toll.
This slow, living flame licks my heart.
Why do I feel nothing but cold?
Why can't I tell this apart?

Secrets have been passed,
The deeds have been done.
Yet this fire still burns...
Burns.
Turning to ash the familiar.

Shouldn't this heart start to blacken?
Shouldn't it hurt?
These questions float among the flames,
Crumbling to dust before they find an answer.

Answers known before the pit.
I knew.
Heart remains untouched,
Soul unscathed.
Remaining in this fire,
Until the dying day.

The fires of hurt,
The lost,
The pain.
The angel protects,
And lost is my name.

The mask is dust,
That soul forgotten.
The darkness now surrenders.
Still I go on
With this heart with no scars.

No scars...

Still I go on
With this heart with no scars,
And still feel
Nothing.

And becomes fire's end
The dust of bones...

Still I go on.
Heart untouched.
Soul unscathed.
Mask is dust?

Still I go on -

Fire's end.

Am I the only one who wishes upon a star

Am I the only who smile when they feel sad

Am I the only one who craves for a touch of happiness

Am I the only who searches for nothing

Am I the only who just wants everything

Am I the who wishes for sweet nothings upon a star
