I'm here,
Sitting at the edge of the bed,
Wished to know what happened to you.
And I tried,
I swear to you that I tried,
But no matter I did
Nothing seemed to be enough.
I thought I was broken,
I thought I was nowhere,
But the light is inside of me
But no one can see it...
I fight against the hours,
And still I can't go to sleep,
But I know that if I lay down now
The rivers will fill-up and break out.
I guess I'm trying to stay in the moment
That has gone and passed and died,
With all the people that I used to know,
Words that were spoken in a heat of a moment.
I'm still here,
Sitting crossed legs and hands.
Footsteps outside the door
But it's not you anymore.
And I tried,
I screamed so loud until I dried
But you still don't know me,
You never really tried to get to know me.
I thought I was guilty
But you were the pain inside of me,
There are no more reasons
To stay locked inside this prison.
I fight against the hours
And still I can't go to sleep
But I know that if I lay down now
The rivers will fill up from the deep.
I guess I'm trying to hold on to that moment
In which things were so clear and understood,
To those people I thought I used to know,
To those words I still wish to hear.
I fight against the hours,
I cannot let myself fall asleep
Because I know that if I lay down now
My tears would drown me into the deep.
Guess I'm trying to hold on to something
That could bring back a meaning that's lost
With all those people that I really wished I'd known
And those words I would no longer hear. |
