I guess it started out the moment I saw myself disappear From the reflection in the mirror How the light slowly faded I saw how everything of value Was taken away By everyone that I would let in The moment when they told me They were ill
When they told me they were ill ♪ All the sleepless nights I sat through All the sunrises I saw Through a hazy blur of colors I would convince myself again Of how every day is better ♪ But what difference does it make When in the end I would still end up composing My departure again But what difference does it make When in the end I would still end up composing My departure again The fading colors in my soul The pain of staying in this hole Please God let me breathe Just let me breathe The fading colors in my soul The pain of staying in this hole Please God let me breathe Just let me breathe
For all the times that I was questioned I would answer that I'm fine Every line I was prepared for Every smile it was rehearsed To the point where I would sometimes Believe in it myself Those moments I would treasure But it happens less and less I'm trying my best Don't you ever forget I'll never stop My lighthouse you'll be ♪ In the darkness that is me In the darkness that is me
