Just listen

It's not the sunrise, it is the light it brings

And it's not the tears, it's how the sorrow sings

It's not the solitude, it is the emptiness

It's not the fear, it's how the blood rushes

It's not the fleeing, it is the leaving

And that my inside remains unchanged

I shut all doors to summer

Opening the vaults to fall

Closing my mind to all color

Midwinter calls

Home!

We are lost, far from home

We never discovered a way to get closer

Our whole existence outlasts our fall

Confession

I never shone brightly and I never cried lightly

And it's not that I don't know the demons are fighting

I know them by the name as they reek of emptiness

Source is not the fear, it's the self-esteem it crushes

It's not the fleeing, it's the non-believing

And that my inside will never change, no

It is the doubting and simply being

These are the fears that I'm battling through

We are lost, far from home

We never discovered a way to get closer

Our whole existence outlasts our fall

We were tears in a storm

That froze in the fall

We've fallen too far

I shut all doors to summer

Opening the vaults to fall

Closing my mind to all colors

Midwinter calls

Home!

We are lost, far from home

We never discovered a way to get closer

Our whole existence outlasts our fall

To behold this, is it hopeless?

We are lost, far from home

The last of all
