Where do I go now?
Where do I go now?
Was is real or
having I been dreaming?
I let you into my soul
Showed you a side of me
never seen by anyone else
never accepted by anyone else
I finally felt what true love is like
I had a little taste of it and
now I have to swallow it
I’ve wandered this world
Watched from the outside
never being part of anything real
I do what is right
or at least I try to
But is it right for them
or is it right for me
Now I’ve had a piece of your world
and that’s all I want in my heart
What do I do now?
Do I continue to sacrifice?
Do I continue to not feel?
Do I live a life of solace
while being surround by so many?
How do I do this
and how can I continue?
How do I disappear
when all I want is to be seen?
I will disappear into myself
Into an abyss I know so well
It doesn’t bring me comfort
but is the only way I know
Darkness will always surround me
My eyes have adjusted
Maybe your light was too bright
and all it did was blind me
Where do I go now?
I’ve been lost for so long
I thought I was finally found
only to be wrong
Where do I go now?
My soul feels like it’s dying
The happiness I felt
I can’t even remember it anymore
The darkness is quickly swallowing
me whole, holding on so tight
I don’t want to be lost
I don’t want to lose the light
