Here in the dark
I can see clearly
All that I am
burns on my eyes
Nobody knows the road
that's before me
Nobody sees
the darkening skies
Here in the light
I'll be your angel
Under your spotlight
I'm learning to fly
But one man's perception
is another's deception
And dying to feeling
I'm living a lie
And in my understanding
I find no reason
You can tell me
I'm strong
like a gathering storm
But I'm lost
in my thoughts
and I'm dead
to the world
You gave me
sheltering sky
but I reached
for the stars
I said
I don't believe in
who you are
But it's only words
Deep in the dark
I feel like I'm falling
Voices and visions
are pulling me down
I need you to help me
escape from this ocean
I need you to stop me
from learning to drown
You seem so understanding
I find no reason
You can tell me
I'm strong
like a gathering storm
But I'm lost
in my thoughts
and dead
to the world
You gave me
sheltering sky
but I reached
for the stars
I said
I don't believe in
who you are
I never thought
I'd let it
go this far
But it's only words
It's only words
It's only words
