I walk the street brick by brick
thought by thought
Leaving it all behind
with each echoing footstep
The emptiness that fills this city
fills my heart, my dreams
and I am not empty anymore
One step closer, one step away
The past is growing darker
vanishing in the vortex
My future, less darker, awaits.
I won't fall apart
Not today
I drift with city held in my embrace
I drift to the reality
A little sad, a little painful, more like a dull ache
A reality that is more like me
Less like you
I stand stronger against what I don't believe
I feel ready to do what I couldn't achieve
I can't blink my eye to miss this transformation
I have no more desire left to sleep.
