Tell me who you are, and where will you be when

The melody of night hits the light rising up

In the east.

The darkness is fading.

Bring the world of just black and white into

Light, as you rise, bringing color into your world.

Dark memories vanish.

 

Oh, as your mind travels through

Emotions and notions of friendship

Nothing seems to thrive.

 

Now, as I see you crying

At the darkest depths of your soul,

Something amiss, diving into darkness,

Darkness which consumes your mind.

 

Holding onto your past isn't worth it.

Nothing can be done there now.

The black and forgotten hopes reside

Only to be unlocked here and now.

But turning to me, the unknowing,

You stared straight through my eyes.

“There's nothing you could possibly see here.”

Reaching in you shut me down.

 

 

 

Hiding from light and life in your own

Secret world that I'm never to know

Because you'll never let go of your hold

On your past.

 

Oh, as I sit here watching

The Hell burning on your face

My soul cries out giving all yet

Nothing.

 

But as I look outside of

Darkness and into the light

I see what you want, when you said,

“It's something I'll never have!”

 

But if you'd look and try to catch

The light running past you'd hear

The sound resounding.

“Didn't I turn you off? Why can't you stay out of my mind?”

And again you reached in to control.

 

But now you see that life in

This darkness is harder

Without the noise of someone else

Blaring in the background.

 

No matter how many times you yell

And scream and turn me off,

I'm set on helping even in silence

To take you back to the world

Made by light.

 

Take my hand in the silence

 

Hold on just for a while.

I know that you are dying to exist.

Just listen to the silence again.

I'm here. I'm near.

Silence isn't so lonely

When you're not alone.



Silence isn't so lonely

When you're not alone.
