Empty Eyes

my failure left me lost at sea
between imagination and the abyss
blankets of thought drape over chains of reality
what kind of life have i missed?
let me out, let me out
excuse me, but you got it wrong
because it was you in the mirror feeling all alone,
but hey! don’t give up now
you will see the light when you bid your clouds farewell
here we go again
another thought, another tick, another click, another sin
the memories, the memories
they remind me of all the places that i wish i’d never been
if i find myself in here i just might let go
my insignificance fills my lungs and my throat
i can’t breathe with this weight on my own (you told me)
«don't worry, it’s just a dream, a fantasy, not reality»
let me out, let me out
excuse me, but you got it wrong
because it was you in the mirror feeling all alone,
but hey! don’t give up now
you will see the light when you bid your clouds farewell
so long, farewell to the promises that i have broken
so long, farewell to the voices yelling never spoken
so long, farewell the reasons i find doubt and failure
to my demons begging me to stay here
i bid adieu, so long
excuse me, but you got it wrong
because it was you in the mirror feeling all alone,
but hey! don’t give up now
you will see the light when you bid your clouds farewell
