The Encounter Lyrics


Like leaves on trees in fall

I’m shivering, I’m falling

Like the screams from a new-born child

So innocent, so fragile

Screaming, struggling, trying

I want to see what the future holds

This life in fear is no life at all

The will I had ain’t strong enough

And the strength I seek ain’t there

My world is dead, my future’s broken

And it all stays the same

They’re coming

They’re coming here to stay

They’re coming

They’re taking me away

They’re coming

They’re coming here to stay

They’re coming

They’re taking me away

I beg for a helping hand

I’m reaching, I am searching

But no...

And I pray for an ear that listens

My hope’s washed away

I’m here alone

I hear them

They’re coming

Quickly through the hallway

The door opens

...Helpless again...

The will I had ain’t strong enough

The strength I seek ain’t there

My world is dead, my future’s broken

‘Cause it all stays the same

They’re coming

They’re coming here to stay

They’re coming

They’re taking me away

They’re coming

Only to leave me in shame

Simply leave me
