In the dark, alone I stand
wondering which way to turn.
It never should have been like this.
I keep telling myself,
so maybe my heart wouldn�t burn.
But the pain runs deep,
like a wishing well
only there will be no wishes granted for me.
I�ve tried; I�ve tried like a thousand times,
but they�re all washed away by the sea.
The sea of tears that I�ve cried myself
that only gets deeper with each passing year.
It is not visible to the naked eye,
but my heart speaks at a volume,
that only I can hear.
Could this be why, then
that I now find myself lost and confused,
at the earth�s end,
with nowhere left to go?
My sense of reality�s been altered
and my mind, messed with,
but I�m still holding onto my hope.
�cause as the darkness pours in,
I see a light flicker,
but as always, it fades away.
I look forward to that moment,
as an excuse,
in hopes that I�ll be rescued,
and today will be that day.
