You always seemed to shine a little more than most.
With the radiance gone it’s hard to carry on.
So I’ll take these feelings try to bury them down.
And do my best not to succumb to apathy.
Time presses onward.
Unrelenting.
And each passing day.
Gets easier.
I’m learning to live.
With emptiness.
Build something better.
Right here and now.
Often we mistake forgetting.
With moving on, so.
We can grab on to what’s left of.
These fragments of light.
And create something beautiful.
A life worth having.
To eternally be proud of.
Share with someone else.
The air still gets heavy.
And it will never let go.
And it will never let go.
The air still gets heavy.
And it will never let go.
And it will never let go.
Time presses onward.
Unrelenting.
And each passing day.
Gets easier.
I’m learning to live.
With emptiness.
Build something better.
Right here and now.
It’s hard to say.
That you’re just gone.
Yeah, you’re just gone now.
It’s hard to say.
That you’re just gone.
Yeah, you’re just gone now.
The air still gets heavy.
And it will never let go.
And it will never let go.
The air still gets heavy.
And it will never let go.
And it will never let go.
The air still gets heavy.
And it will never let go.
And it will never let go.
The air still gets heavy.
And it will never let go.
And it will never let go.

Morning stars.
Shine with such grace.
A beam of light.
Touches your face.
As to say.
Don’t you worry.
The world is ours.
What’s your hurry?
My weary eyes.
Long for sleep.
But I’m so afraid of my dreams.
I just stay awake.
Still nothing much.
Keeps me here.
So I think of who I’d let down.
If I disappeared.
Please tear me down.
And rebuild us.
Our foundation.
Just wasn’t strong enough.
If there’s no pain.
Then is it love?
Life little game.
Will always follow us.
Life’s little game.
Will always follow us.
My weary eyes.
Long for sleep.
But I’m so afraid of my dreams.
I just stay awake.
What can you do?
When you don’t like what you see.
What you see.
I tried so hard.
But ended up with nothing.
With nothing.
What can you do?
When you don’t like what you see.
What you see.
I tried so hard.
But ended up with nothing.
With nothing.
Becoming jaded.
Self-Isolation.
I welcome fading.
Drifting silently.
It’s what you asked for.
This is what you wanted.
It’s what you asked for.
This is what you wanted.
It’s what you asked for.
This is what you wanted.
It’s what you asked for.
This is what you wanted.
It’s what you asked for.
This is what you wanted.
It’s what you asked for.
This is what you wanted.

She grows more reclusive.
With each passing day.
Alone in the quite.
On her hands and knees.
Praying for some guidance.
Where is the answer?
In the depths of your heart.
Find what you’re after.
Let hope guide you on your way.
There’s no shame searching for one’s self.
Take a look behind the veil.
That’s been pulled over your eyes.
A flame rests inside the soul.
Burning brightly so let it out.
Know love will always find you.
Don’t be afraid to seek it now.
Life can be a blank canvas.
So paint whatever’s in your heart.
Even if you’re a little lost.
You’ll traverse your way through the dark.
Just let go of the past.
Put away your mask.
Just let go of the past.
Put away your mask.
Faith can change.
Anything.
Faith can change.
Anything.
Faith can change.
Anything.
Faith can change.
Anything.

In silence we all bowed our heads.
With fists clenched.
Too tightly.
Minds playing happy memories.
Constantly.
Joyfully.
But it quickly fades.
And all I see.
Becomes more distant.
Floating away.
Then the ghost.
Passes by me.
Keeping hope.
Just out of reach.
Still I see.
The imagery.
I long to walk through the garden and engrave my name.
Welcome despair as a stranger and love as a friend.
Live life for the glory and not for the bitter end.
Spend time in the company of those who mean the most.
Take a walk outside and breathe in the air.
Wondering when my sign will become clear.
I hope these words reach you so you can hear.
I can’t really tell.
What I’m feeling.
And that’s defeating.
In its own way.
I wonder if I.
Can do something.
(Love will guide you.
On your way back home.)
Step back.
Let it go.
Will the light.
Soon follow.
Step back.
Let it go.
Will the light.
Soon follow.
Step back.
Let it go.
Will the light.
Soon follow.
Step back.
Let it go.
Will the light.
Soon follow.
Step back.
Let it go.
Will the light.
Soon follow.
Step back.
Let it go.
Will the light.
Soon follow.
