The tears, the crying, this world is dying,
And all I can picture is black
The lack, the sorrow, denuding the morrow,
Somehow it always comes back
The distance, I'm further away from you now,
Drifting apart from my world
This venture I've started, rejecting it all,
I'll never let go of my word

Clinging to fragments, pieces and segments,
Never have I been alone
You've always been there, feeding my strength,
Always been there, at arms length,
Always been there, feeding my strength

What I've become, the person I am,
Stands taller than most of you all,
The goals I set out to achieve in this world,
I've faced them now, both big and small

The tears, the crying, please stop your lying,
And skip all your empty promises
The lack, the sorrow, denuding our morrow,
But somehow, it cannot get darker than this
The world, still at arms length
