lyrics

Feeling empty with my hands in the ground.
Lost and alone this place lets me drown.
My eyes red and wide. I've lost what used to be pride.
Silent tears, I might have skipped a passage.

Craving to be free in the open. A man enjoying his life.
What am I doing here in this mess? It all seems so futile.

I have once questioned myself what I was doing here
because of bad luck that kept on confronting me.
When you make no progression in life it seems that everything is useless.
As I lay here and confront myself, I’m scared. Scared of the mess I'll make when I admit to these self-destructive thoughts and thus my beloved ones will cry.

I’m sorry for being scared of life.
But my illness has locked the golden door to delight.
Oh beloved one will you be the one to unlock it?
Reinforce my spirit, be a gift of life.

Please answer for my stubbornness and proclaim for the person I know you really are.
Don’t let the ignorance of other people evoke hatred or jealousy in your heart.
Being a puppet of society or having a fake identity is wrong.
I will no longer continue to confess.

I managed to escape this darkness,
while I lived amidst my own cold fear.
I have put my selfishness aside. Turned my back and opened my eyes again,
for your laughter. I can see the light again.

Depressive minds are prone to collapse.
Never again will I choose this dark path.
My self-destructive thoughts, won’t torment me anymore.
I might have rediscovered the door to delight.

Nor will I hunt myself down.
Nor will I cry in vain.
Nor will I hunt myself down.
Nor will I cry in vain.

In a darkness,
as black as the night.
There will always be,
a sparkle of light.
