You're a spring bubbling 

Yet drowning for a gasp of air

The anxiety accumulates in your chest 

Hold back those tears

All we've been given shrinks in the darkness of fear

And like a heavy cloak

Doubt blinds you with tears 

On this endless journey,

Darkness drags at my heels

It weighs me down 

It weighs me down 

This anxiety's pulling me down

accumulating in my chest 

Hyperventilating and about to drown 

But I will keep walking ...

On towards the light 

I will follow the sunrise

With nothing but the wind on my back 

And dog at my side 

Life keeps moving 

Whether you want it to or not 

Everything you think you are

Crumbles right in front of you

Because you are who you are 

All you can give is a rusty, bruised, heart

Til you see it isn't good enough 

Til you hear

The voice inside you saying,

"Just give up..."

The past beats on you, hard as the late August sun

Tired and conquered 

By a hopeless hope

That someone would somehow see

past the dirt, past the countless scars

Past these tears that keep surfacing with doubt

Comfort is hard to come by when surviving has become an art

And those old, aching knees 

Might have another reason to believe 

That somehow my faith and sorrow 

Will fill this lonesome soul 

But to think you could see past this 

Is anything but logical 

And all these moments...

All the faith and sorrow 

The struggle and pain separates

Me from who i am and who i want to be 

Have robbed me

Of my destiny 

They've left me here old...

With many wishes, 

Not one of them met

What once was beautiful 

Has become a hideous nightmare...

Suffering 

This is my story

Everything you think you are

Crumbles right in front of you

Because you are who you are 

All you can give is a rusty, bruised, old heart

Will it ever be enough ?

All we've been given shrinks in the darkness of fear

And like a heavy cloak

Doubt blinds you with tears 

On this endless journey,

Darkness pulls at my heels

Weighing me down 

But I will keep walking ...

Towards the sunrise... 

though the voice inside me says, " just give up..."

It's too late

I just can't..

Find a reason to say

That things will never change 

That they will always be this way 

Just as the winds change 

Life has a way

of surprising you

And i believe...

Winds blowing leaves into the coming sunrise

Everything that's broken

Rearranged will learn how to work 

at some point 

Yes, your faith and sorrow's sighs 

Absent of answers

Will survive

All we've been given shrinks in the darkness of fear

And like a heavy cloak

Doubt blinds you with tears 

On this endless journey,

Darkness drags at my heels

Weighing me down 

But I will keep walking ...

Yes, I'll keep on going...
