You're miles away but I can feel your body next to mine.
You're not around but your voice echoes inside my head.
Oceans separates us but the waves of your love make me calm.
You're not here but I see you in everything I look at.
Funny how someone from a distance makes you feel closer.

It's like a person that I don't wanna see but can't avoid.
A force that keeps on pulling me away from the things that I wanna do.
A wall that separates me from my goals.
A darkness even when it's sunny.
A shadow that keeps on following me.

Don't believe them when they say they will always be there for you, they won't.
They never do that.
They always do the opposite.
They always leave.

All of what they've told me were true:
You'll fall in love with a girl even before she falls in love with you.
You might not realise it soon enough.

First, you'll fall in love with her smile.
Then, you'll get to stare at her eyes and see more of her.
Lastly, you'll hear her laugh and it'll be the most precious sound you'll ever hear.

Once you've felt one of those, there's no turning back.

Always alone, no one to talk to.
No one you actually want to talk to.
No one to share your thoughts when you're sad or happy.

Wandering around a place on your own.
Experiencing things on your own.

It's okay. It will always be okay.
For when you do those things alone,
You can find yourself.
You have to be strong alone,
Then you can be strong with someone.

Don't rush, take things slow.
Don't find it, let it come to you.
You are never alone anyway,
You can always pray.

Hello Darkness, you're here again.
You've always been there since then.

You're there when I'm in pain,
More so when I'm going insane.

You know when I'm not okay,
You check on me day by day.

I just want you to stay away,
But I realised that I'm always astray.
