Close
I’m dwelling through dark places -
empty and alone.
I’m searching through hollow faces -
to find the one I know.
I look around -
I want to run…
I want to make you believe!
I’m still standing before you -
time races on.
While looking onto my eyes -
do you look right through me?
I reach out -
begging for your love…
my heart is dying before you!
I’m crying outside in the cold -
small and unworthy.
Do you even see me?
Do you even know me?
I want to give it all to you!
yet… I can’t make you love me…
but I will lay down my heart!
Let’s stop talking...
just hold me close...
