Watching the rain outside
And as the storm subsides
A puddle remained
In each footprint you left behind
I stepped back and closed my eyes
And that's when I realized
I was walking alone
The entire time
Now that I've been shown the light
I realize that I was so naive
You would show yourself to be kind
While secrets lurked beneath
No secret ever goes untold
And sometimes it hurts more than a lie
I stand and watch it all unfold
As time just seems to pass me by
This is a place where
I cannot feel like I belong
This is a place where
Everything I do seems to be wrong
This is a place
Where nothing is truly as it seems
This a place
I need to leave behind me
As silence comes to fill my ears
I lay down with a creeping fear
What I thought I knew before
Has become unclear
Like dust blowing in the wind
It's gone and never seen again
Somehow I feel like it was
Just dream in the end
Now that I am seeing clear
I could not have been more naive
There are no allies here
And there is no one here for me
As I watch it all unfold
It hurts more as time passes me by
I see how far away and cold
I really was the whole time
This is a place where
I am truly on my own
This is a place where
I have realized I have not grown
This is a place
Where nothing is truly as it seems
This a place
I need to leave behind me
In recent days gone by
In the middle of the night
Sometimes I find myself
Looking up at the sky
I hold my head up high
I breathe in and let out a sigh
Because I promised myself
That I wouldn't cry
