There is me, what I forgot was within
I’ve not stopped to think
There might be more of me
I’ll know it when I seek it
Because even blind I’ll feel it
Moving through me
That voice that calls to me
Deep from within
So silent and so dry
Blind Blind Blind
Empty for so long
Just a moment more I’m sure
It might be just a song
Or a great river of my tears
That have gathered greatly through the years
Can I shed the shell I live in
Will I ever be free of me
Or do my days end with dust’
As my eyes close one last time
Were the tears worth shedding
Were the years worth wasting my life away
Doing this and that for everyone but me
So stuck inside never ever to be free
Wind will blow and clouds will drift
My soul floats away all alone today
What might tomorrow bring me
Can I even stop to hope
Or should I keep my spirits low
So alone yet life flows around me
My heart stutters and flutters
With apathy
Just me, blind and alone
