Mr. Mystery

I waste days of my life away Fantasizing of something worth living for every day I try to hold myself together But sometimes I get as turbulent as the monsoon weather I wish happiness were real But it's something I was never able to feel You're just like me Living your life, trying to be free But everyone seems to hold you back Pointing out all the things you lack I wish you would let me hold your hand I wish you would let me show you that you can We're the epitome of tragedy Anyone can look in our eyes and see But somehow, when I'm with you My whole world becomes true I'm so thankful for the good and even for the bad Because as long as I'm with you, I'm never sad In a world full of so much darkness and so little light You shine like a star, so very bright You've saved me From this agony I want to make you feel the same way But perhaps a different day...
