Losing myself in the wilderness wasn't a plan
In the dark truth of day it wasn't even clever
For being alone just saved me from that man
That lived inside me wanting for never
It wasn't love that cast me aside, nor even that girl
The fault lay with no one that I took up the blues
The one to blame was staring blankly at the world,
But you already know it's me, it's not headline news.
So years go by to everyone but me
They move on move up drifting further away
Just one thing remained rooted like a tree
It was time to arise and no longer be afraid of being free.
For whatever may come, whatever we do
These moments are stardust, wishes come true
I'm no longer terrified of being me or seeing you
And in the gaps in between what was dead, now is new.
When the days grow short and the night towers high
I'm no longer scared of shadows or sound of the cry
Of demons with secrets of what once had died
I can see that next sunrise in the gleam in your eyes.
