Awake
In a cold empty room
The light from the window
Casting shadows on the wall
Alone
Staring into the void
The calm of the silence
Striving to slow the fall
This newfound freedom
And life without the pain
Is strange to explain
As nothing feels the same
After all the answers
Only questions remain
Silent yet piercing
Much like the pouring rain
What ever happened
To the dreams of a child?
Who used to watch the sun
Set down behind his window
Wanted to become
A man just like his father
Be a humble working man
Always carried by his dreams
Those days are forever gone
And not a single dream came true
Instead I'm lying here with you
In the dark I lost your cue
And without I stepped astray
Your halo shines less every day
Alone
With the shadows on the wall
