Hello my darkness, My old friend. Here it is, 3am. I open my eyes, And look around. Alone, In this silence, Is all I found. You and I, Are finding common ground. And as I lay here, In the quietness of this room, All I hear is the ringing, In my ears. While my words echo, In my head, Becoming so clear. Pushing me through this fear. As I lay alone, In my bed, Why must we keep meeting this way? What is so important, That I must say? What must I do, To keep you away? What must I find, In order to convey? All I want to do is sleep. To close my eyes, And never weep. The tears that fall, They are temporary relief. Of the heartache I feel, Of not having it all. Why must you wake me? Why can't you let me be? Why won't you, Just set me free? The pain I feel is heavy, That sits in my chest. Everyday now, It's become so hard to rest. And no matter how many times I say, I did my best. At the end of the day, You're still here, Waking me. What must I be learning? What am I not hearing? What is it I'm overlooking? Please, Just guide me. Show me my way, Through your darkness. So I can be at peace again. Use this silence, To show me, Where to begin. I've come so far, From when we first met. I know when you're here, I will find that star. I surrender, Fight it no more. Let you flow through me, And just let it be.
