Curled up from the world outside the tears are falling like the rain on the glass
Broken and bleeding inside my heart is torn away
I will leave this place for the last time I will walk away
Walking blindly into the unknown as my eyes weep for what was within my heart
I am alive I hear my heart beating slowly its determination to keep me going
One step forward from the ten I took back
Nobody should cry for the life that was never theirs but I join in the chorus of uncertainty
Lying here beneath the stars where I saw us together dancing
There the darkened room where we lay side by side telling each other dreams of what will never be
I gave myself over to you with my eyes closed
With my eyes opened I look back at the memories and find the strength to walk away
This is the hardest thing I have ever done the hardest words to leave my lips
I look for the ghost of you – the memories make you fade into a whisper
Side by side under the sun and stars I felt truly alive when I looked into your eyes
Then the moment, the dreams they faded away and died
I hold no regret for the decision I made as I looked for paradise with you by my side
You taught me to breathe to let my heart my beat to a passionate rhythm
You stood back and showed me what I was truly inside.
I look back at you I see your eyes matching mine my strength my resolve is fading as I try to move
Is it so wrong of me to still believe in you?
To find myself believing in the dreams I had before the nightmares captured them
To believe that there in the darkness and the light there is hope to live once more...
