Here.
Once again.
Fallen down.
One more time.
…and it hurts.
Like before.
Like it always does.
Time
to admit
– that I’m not
winning here.
Through the dark,
through the tears,
I see my way.
and she waits for me….
In a long black car….
The end of the fear.
The end of the pain.
Well she waits for me….
In a long black car….
No more shame.
No more anything at all
There will be a day. When you won’t think of me.
when you do – may the memory make you smile and not cry.
and tomorrow
when you’re woken by the family calls
and you think you hear me
as you’re drifting down our silent halls
You’re gonna reach inside and tear it out to make it through
‘cause you don’t need me – not like I needed you
and out of nowhere when the band breaks out our favorite song
and no one else can see that you’re just barely hanging on
remind yourself that I was wrong and this is right
now I’m out of the dark – I’ve stepped into the light.
