Still the light exposes my weakness
and the darkness of night still questions my dreams
there is nowhere left I can escape without knowing
of all that I wasted just wanting to be.
There was never ambition to climb every mountain
it was all beaten from me each time I'd succeed
success was a dream always to far to reach for
surviving each moment was a matter of need.
Friendships were mine but all doomed to failure
I lost each one without a lasting goodbye
the life that they lived so short and revealing
but always it left me with just more tears to cry.
I now hide away not caring for redemption
not caring for the daylight to hearten my soul
as my faith in this life has been cruelly defeated
and the goodness I search for is nowhere I know.
