I kept waiting,
Waiting to feel something,
I wanted to feel something,
Well, anything.
I got lost,
Lost inside the fire in your eyes,
I got way too close,
Now I'm burnt-out.

Looked around,
Saw how the world spins ever so slowly,
Then came another fatal blow,
And in my head
Small flashes of light in the dark,
A brief, blinding glimpse of light
Engulfing me now.

Tried to keep the faith
But it died and took a part of me,
A part of me that always wanted
To be loved.
Now everything has changed,
Standing all alone in the night,
A rush of thoughts and feelings
Like a lightning over the distant horizon.

When I break
It's all that I ever needed to know
How far I have to go just to hold on.
And in my head
Small flashes of light in the dark,
A brief, blinding glimpse of who I used to be,
And now it's all gone.

Like flashes in the night,
A brief, blinding glimpse
And now I'm gone.
