Given the truth I would not go back even now
The hurt was so bad I can't sleep with it now
The years have swept through
Taking my youth
I can't control that which I feel
I can't turn back
My path is set
The leaves swirl at my feet
The wind blows back my hair
How long has it been since I cared?
The numbness won't leave
I'd rather have pain
At least then I'd feel something again
I won't beg for mercy
I won't beg at all
I just want you to hear my call
Wishing you well
Though I can't speak
I'm shattered again on this path at my feet
But given the chance
I still won't go back
There is no life there for me
The only life I know
Is the one here right now
The one where I walk
And wander
So please hear my cry
I don't want die
Not without you knowing
I still love you
But that time is gone
And again sadness reigns
Can you feel my hand reach out to you again?
