From the words of a broken heart
I have to say
I haven't seen the light for a day
I do not want to anyway
It won't ever agree with me
But I will try to
Between the nights
I have to agree even so
The night is tied


Look around you 
What do you see
Stars are falling in and out of time
It's a journey to no man's land
Back to reality, breaker of illusions
I have to say
People are always saying things they shouldn't say
Put it away
Hide it away
and don't show it anyways

But judging just wouldn't be right
It's like mixing day into night
Thinking of love and money at times
Can bring your mind into a raceless fight


Maybe my light right now is at a low key
Or maybe it's just a case of my dark depression
Someday, it will be over and done
..And I haven't seen the light
For a day
I do not want to anyway
It won't ever agree with me ever again
But I will try to.....
