LIFE

fill my bones
feel my heart
touch my soul - i'm standing too close to the end

these tears in my eyes
fall like rain
can't hide the pain
i've been feeling since the day
i was born

i'm staring down the road
looking up at a sky
that hangs down all over me
no one seems to listen
when your heart cries out with unanswered questions

when only music
can carry this loneliness
i know i'm carrying something
that will never die
and someday it will take me away
take me away
loneliness take me away, today

i hear love can change everything
people talk about it
but what my soul tells me
is something i haven't seen
i need a hand to rescue me
before i close my eyes
its a shame to die before you live
