Intro 00:50
2.
Sometimes I get the feeling I am all alone Wandering the desert of self Just trying to find a way back home Searching for a family That accepts a damaged kid But the crowd that’s all around me None of them, none of them Seem to fucking care Open up my crying eyes Help me see the brighter side Open up my crying eyes Show me what the fuck true love is like I am plunging deeper Into this dark hole I am going nowhere Nowhere is, nowhere is where I fucking belong Open up my crying eyes Help me see the brighter side Open up my crying eyes Show me what the fuck true love is like I would’ve taken a bullet for you Now I know you don’t give a damn After all we went through? That’s the difference between me and you
3.
Despondent 01:38
I’ve been rejected I’m disconnected Self-reflected and I feel dejected Overcoming is so hard to do When you’ve taken the steps But you can’t push through Walking through my heart I’ve only found self-doubt This observation of inner degradation No medication could pull me out Despondent While the sun may rise, it only sets for me The sun may rise, but it only sets for me
4.
She’s a setting sun; no rise in sight A beauty with a mind Far beyond her years Her heart is shattered for the hundredth time It drains her of self-worth Drains her of self-love Tired in tears all alone Crying loud but no one hears Head in hand; overcome by fears My love, sweet love I’d give you the moon and I’d steal you the world Your worth, your worth Lies not without but within You are so much more than this More than words could possibly express Your untapped potential Will lead you to your bloom Despite the thoughts that patrol your mind Planted by those mindless fucking gardeners over time If you could only see and let me open your eyes You could see a world that’s ripe for your kind You mean so much more to me more than I could ever say to you Listen to me While everybody’s got a thought for you No matter the pain or the trials that you’ve been through But when you can’t stand on your own two feet I will be there to give you your stability You are more More to me
5.
I know I have no home A place to call my own My growing need to belong Weighs with my will to be strong Wishing I could find the courage To say my part, so free The time has come and I must go to try to find my inner-peace I am more than this I have suffered enough For 23 tiring years I have suffered enough For more than just myself Every day Keeps ticking away My clock is winding down Time has come to be the bigger man And face my fears head fucking on I set my sights To the clouds beyond the trees You’ll know you can find me Where the land and the skyline meet That’s where I belong This is my home
