When you feel that all is lost, you're all alone.
Your heart is cold, your soul is stone.
You live in darkness, you can't escape,
You give up fighting. This is your fate.
You sit and watch as the world goes by.
You're part of the ground while they all fly.
They move past you without a glance.
They don't believe you deserve a second chance.
A second chance. A new body, a new soul.
To climb the stairs of life, not trip on the stool.
You tried to succeed despite your plight.
But the void wears you down, you're losing this fight.
You can't understand how things went wrong,
It hurts to think back, when your dreams were strong.
A mask you wear fools family and friend.
They see a smile, but your pain has no end.
Trapped with the demons that kill you inside.
There is no refuge, there's nowhere to hide.
For years you've waged this internal war.
You even used chemicals to help settle the score.
But like roaches, the demons overcome.
Your last hope destroyed, the war is nearly done.
Now you lay defeated, the end drawing near.
You curse the world around you, you've lost all fear.
Darkness envelops you, all is silent.
Emptiness is different. Peaceful, not violent.
But the silence is broken, its facade torn apart.
For there is one faint sound, the beating of a heart.
You try to ignore it, wanting the peace to return.
But the heart beats louder, you feel its passion burn.
Your eyes quickly open, you awake with a start.
You look into their eyes, and the darkness departs.
Their soul seems to glow, they seem so caring.
Only when they smile do you realize you're staring.
You feel your heart race, just at their touch.
You've never felt drawn to a person who much.
Your spirits are lifted, your problems gone away.
For as long as you're with them, you will find a way.
