In my world drained to black and gray
From the light I knew, I started to stray
Caught up in the darkness that is calling for me
I tasted the world and enjoyed the pleasure of itI told myself I'm far away from the light
But little did I knew, I was just blind
I mingled with my strongholds
Oh I couldn't see in front of me is the thing that could hurt me the mostAnd yes, I didn't know anything about life
Without weapons and armour, I jumped into the battlefield
Against my demons, I instantly lost the fight
I betrayed my angels and got consumed by the nightBut some moons came and shared its light
But those weren't really bright enough to guide me right
I astrayed farther and lost my sight
Almost blurred the line of wrong and rightI stumbled to my own feet
And drowned in my ocean of fear
Chained to the heavy rock of self-created problems
I couldn't swim up and gasp for airThe more I attempt to break free,
The more I die inside
The more I try to scream for help,
The more I find myself surrounded by endless darknessI lost myself in the process of finding thrill
I lost myself in the process of finding me
I lost myself in the process of looking for love and life
I lost myself in the start of my journeyI lost myself and still wish I didn't
I lost myself, but found you instead
And I really couldn't believe
That all these time you were with meBut I just have to ask,
Are you from the light I was from or a demon in disguise?
Are you here to save me or to drown me more?
Are you here to lead me further astray or to lead me back home?I wouldn't deny that my heart screams your name
Though my mouth constantly speaks of somebody else
A cover-up or disguise, that only I knows so I could hide
A not so common secrecy, of myself to another meI really couldn't explain in my own words,
But if I was asked to shout my love to the whole world,
I'd rather whisper it to your ears
Do you know what I mean?
