I was tired in bone and mind,
everything was rough nothing kind.
I was ready to shelf my dream,
hope was gone, light was very dim.
In the dark, i closed my eyes
everything i had believed was a lie.
I remember just how it was,
it was perfect it smelt like a rose.
In that moment, it sure wasn't false.
Only if i can dream once again,
i shall sniff that rose in the rain.
Only if i can try once more,
i will drain the skies, make it pour.
It was just perfect in your arms,
when you had my heart in your palms.
I once believed in fairy tales,
i haven't smiled in a while, you can tell.
In the dark, i laughed at my sorrows
Sought the strength to face them tomorrow
All promises made were hollow,
The words were just words,
nothing more than facades
But i swore to my soul, to give it my all.
To answer when called, and stand if i fall
As i sat in the dark, all out of luck,
It's not a plan that i lack,
Direction or passion, perhaps compassion
i was in a state of confusion
Then i opened my eyes, gone was yesterday
