Crawling In The Dark


verse 1:
I will dedicate and sacrifice my everything for
just a seconds worth of how my story's ending. and
I wish I could know if the directions that I take
and all the choices that I make won't end up all
for nothing.


chorus:


show me what it's for. make me understand it. I've
been crawling in the dark looking for the answer.
is there something more than what I've been
handed? I've been crawling in the dark looking for
the answer.


verse 2:
help me carry on. assure me it's ok to use my
heart and not my eyes to navigate the darkness.
will the ending be ever coming suddenly? will I
ever get to see the ending to my story?


repeat chorus


bridge:


so when and how will I know?..................
how much further do I have to go? how much longer
until I finally know? because i'm looking and I
just can't see what's in front of me, in front of
me!


repeat chorus


Running Away


I don't want you to give it all up
and leave your own life collecting dust
and I don't want you to feel sorry for me
you never gave us a chance to be


And I don't need you to be by my side
and tell me that everythings all right
I just wanted you to tell me the truth
You know I'd do that for you


So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?


I did enough to show you that I was willing to
give and sacrafice
and I was the one who was lifting you up
when you thought your life had had enough
when I get close you turn away, nothing that I can
do or say
so now I need you to tell me the truth
you know I would do that for you


So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?


Is it me? Is it you?
Nothing that
I can do
To make you change your mind


Is it me? Is it you?
Nothing that
I can do
Is it a waste of time?


Is it me? Is it you?
Nothing that
I can do
to make you change your mind


So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
(What is it I have to say?)
So why are you running away?
(To make you admit you're afraid)
Why are you running away?
