Lyrics
Saw you just in passing
Aura stayed the same
Never once did I think you
Would change me
Saw you more at parties
With the closest friends
I saw the monsters come out
The beams their eyes would send
Now a light inside me
Not as bright as before
Tries all it’s might to guide me
From the maze of more
But I will not go down
In flames
Like the ones that came before me
Reaching up above
For strength
‘Cause I know that you will show me
What I’m here to do
Again
There’s a reason why you brought me
Through all of this joy and pain
Show me the way
I will not go
With open arms you’d take me
Above the clouds we’d fly
And talk all night of dreams
Illusions of knowing the sky but
You see how things got darker
See how people change
Reality slips away
To somewhere far off and strange
Now a light inside me
Not as bright as before
Tries all its might to guide me
From of the maze of more
But I will not go down
In flames
Like the ones that came before me
Reaching up above
For strength
‘Cause I know that you will show me
What I’m here to do
Again
There’s a reason why you brought me
Through all of this joy and pain
Show me the way
I will not go
