Waking at each birth of dawn, feeling hallow and alone
The city yawns outside my window, a home without a home
Hungrily seek to make connections, all ignore my silent plight
Mask all my pain in laughter, a darkness moving past the light (light - light)
Light - Light - Light
Oh, I'm just a silhouette, a name without a face,
Gusting wind against a window, longing for more space. (space)
I move unseen and unnoticed, a wisp of smoke that fades,
My existence is a secret, truth everyone evades - EVADES!
Evades - EVADES!
Silently I walk the streets, the weight of hopelessness ingrained
An endless blur of faces pass, like wet ink on paper stained, (stained - stained)
I crave the warmth of human touch, simple comfort of a friend
But each day unfolds like the last, carousel without end (no - end)
No end
No end - NO END!
I'm a whisper in the silence, a thought that drifts away,
Like a dream you can't remember, forever lost in yesterday.
A paper boat cast to sea, drifting further aimlessly,
I need a lighthouse as my guide, lead me home and set me free (free.....free)
Set me free - FREEEEEEE!!!!!
Set me free - FREEEEEEE!!!!!
Sipping sadly on my silence, watching others laughter flow,
Faces passing by like chapters, in a book I'll never know.
I trace fine lines upon my palm, precious map to something more,
But destinations shift and blur, when the doubts begin to soar. (soar - soar)
Soar - SOAR!!!!!
Soar - SOAR!!!!!
A realization dawns at dusk, a chilling truth revealed,
I'm the ghost of all the moments, the love they left concealed.
I am the unseen, the forgotten, the darkest shades of grey,
A specter on deaths dim stage, as I slowly fade away. (away - away)
Fade away - FADE AWAY!
Fade away - FADE AWAY!
I'm a whisper in the silence, a thought that drifts away,
Like a dream you can't remember, forever lost in yesterday.
A paper boat cast to sea, drifting further aimlessly,
I need a lighthouse as my guide, lead me home and set me free (free - free)
Set me free - FREE!
Set me free - FREE!
