Identity

I remember it well, I remember it well Sorrow born from broken lies in the blinking of an eye Even waking from sleep, it still seems like a dream Like the story we would write in that single flash of light Hey, second hand, wait a minute Please smile at me just a little bit I was ever always always at your mercy I’ll destroy the cold and frozen future stretching out ahead And no matter what it takes I’ll never lose what I hold dear again I will find you far beyond our fate, transcending destiny So there’s nothing left of meaning in the many tears we’ve cried Here in the corner of this world that keeps on spinning in a daze I hear you breathing in and out like you were calling out in pain If a thousand moments pass us by, if we can meet again If we only smile a little we can laugh through our despair I remember it well, I remember it well There was life in all I’d see, and it meant the whole world to me Rolling hills, sky above, every friend that I love Makes this life we shared worthwhile even if it hurts us We still don’t know the meaning of these little things so precious and meaningless The nights make me sick but they keep coming But we still are crawling forward and screaming out loud Until we are amazed to find we’ve made it in the end Surely if we keep on seeking the tomorrows of our dreams Promise you won’t ever try to hide your loneliness again from me I will find you far beyond our fate, transcending destiny So there’s nothing left of meaning in the many tears we’ve cried Just for the sake of living with the one you love with all your heart Carving marks along the path you traveled smiling all the way This life is not a paint by number colored in the lines So it’s fine to look into the mirror and to see yourself alone Dead inside, yet living… I known all along but I still can’t speak! I’ll destroy the cold and frozen future stretching out ahead Even if the memories return from far away to beat me down I will find you far beyond our fate, transcending destiny So there’s nothing left of meaning in the many tears we’ve cried And even if you take a breath and vow to throw it all away It will still be just as painful on whichever path you take I want to live my life, I want to live a life I choose Where I’ll make myself a future full of laughter and of smiles
