we try to escape/
we run after the light/
the only light bright enough to be seen/
too obvious in our eyes/
but it was the wrong light/
because instead of saving us
or taking us somewhere else/
it just brought us down
and teared us apart/
can't help myself/
from all the times I've ignored your wise words/
oh how I miss you now/
and the stupidity has hit me like a brick wall/
and my bones are breaking/
and I find myself shaking/
scared to know what the unknown has to tell me/
and all the secrets of the world have been kept/
silently underneath my feet/
it's time to open my eyes/
and actually see/
instead of just looking around/
like a lost tourist/
it's time to photograph the view /
and hope it won't fade away from our memory/
