"Needing"
Ahead of me
There was something bright
For my destiny was bringing me
Towards the light.
I had to get away
From everyone that I could
Because I felt so alone
I never thought I would.
Inflicting my own pain
To stop the hurt it caused.
Wanting to go forward
But purposely remaining paused.
Driving myself crazy
In order to stay serene.
Walking in the darkness
Because I needed to be seen.
Moving to quickly
In order to remain paced.
Leaving a trail behind me
So as not to be traced.
Keeping myself hidden
Because I needed to be found.
Wanting to be heard
Therefore never making a sound.
Praying to the lord
Not wanting to be forgiven.
Slowly killing myself
In order to stay living.
Always asking questions
Because I don't want the truth.
Trying to stay young forever
To be able to forget my youth.
Purposely remaining
In the darkest night
For my destiny was bringing me
Towards the light.
