Don’t I try too hard for nothing else to heed but I fear the silence crawling over me I see our talking had to stop There’s Nothing left to see and I realize we never did agree What is left of feelings back in time what is kept a promise lacking before the light For what it’s worth I still remember our old life Turned around to fast Turned too fast for me and I fear the memory of moments left between Did you ever leave? Did I feel these things too much? Did I feel the silence or not, do we only know our own lives? Oh what is left of feelings back in time what is kept a promise lacking before the light For what it’s worth I still remember our old life With everything I have to miss you, I will always have my issues. Yet the thought of you tomorrow will always pull out all of my sorrows. With everything I have to say, you’re like a tide rolling through my way.

I was once not afraid To be seen, to be free Like a dunce on the stage who decrees foolish things As I held my head up high I guess I was feeling elated As the coldest eyes cast light on what they endearingly hated Hollow hands, fragile voice Fading eyes tell me lies Want a man, stupid boy Wretched guise, never mind When I found myself unbound You said to belongs overrated But my love can’t make a sound Now set to be lost and berated Bereft with shame The world doesn’t want to see The theft of light They took you without a fight I can’t explain Invulnerable won’t bleed Incessant sight I just want to feel alright I was once not afraid To be seen To be free I was once not afraid I don’t want to be seen

Don’t you feel so ridiculous like this? A dazzling ray surrounds you, but do you know what they say about you? What all did you lose to feel alive? How does the world look around you? Does it feel like it walks about you? Don’t you feel it’s better to be in disguise? Your shining hair, they‘ll stop and stare, and cut away at your luscious light. but you keep on marching forth with greatest pride I just stayed behind, I wasn’t petrified Your look, your voice, oh your graceful motions I was afraid to learn to love you You look so strong with your radiant colors I was ashamed to know and love you They looked so wrong when they tore you open I wasn’t safe enough to hold you I didn’t say enough to love you You look like gold with your arms wide open I was afraid to learn and love you I was afraid to learn I couldn’t stand to bring you in, and thus I didn’t bring myself the love we always needed, I couldn’t feel it, I couldn’t feel the words and grace you opened wide I wasn’t petrified, I was just lost in lies, so I’ll live to carry on and love the ones who away need it Your look, your voice, oh your graceful motions I was afraid to learn to love you You stand so strong with your radiant colors I was ashamed to know and love you They looked so wrong when they tore you open I was didn’t say enough and hold you I didn’t say enough and hold you You look like gold with your arms wide open I was afraid to learn and love you I was afraid to learn
