In a room where the light is too thin
Where shadows will dance on the walls
There's a silence that speaks from within
Comes a voice that will softly call
With every breath, burning my seconds
I held my breath too long, learned all of my lessons
My dreams are all lost, my fears are now found
A cage full of thoughts locked away without sound
I'm walking closer to the edge
Where thoughts and my actions might blend
In the darkest corners of my mind
Yet my heart is too heavy to bear
I'm reaching but nobody's there
The light seems so distant
Why aren't they listening?
But nobody's here
Here's the truth of life, it's a masquerade,
Every smile is a mask and they always fade
Every door is a chapter, it won't go faster
Memories turn ghost, haunting echoes of laughter
So I'll hold on through the night
Perhaps in the morning, it'll be fine
I'm walking closer to the edge, I might jump
Where thoughts and my actions might blend, I'll be gone
In the darkest corners of my mind, Is this right
Yet my heart is too heavy to bear, I'm too scared
I'm reaching but nobody's there
The light seems so distant
Why aren't they listening?
But nobody's here
