Relief
So close to where I want The vision seems to haunt
Being so near leaves it's scar
So close , yet so far
I stuck to my belief
Now I need some relief
I look to the sea
I need to be free
I'm on the edge of the dream
It's harder than it may seem
To feel so much
I almost lose touch
Which emotions are mine
I need to shine
Take back what is mine
Sometimes around
People cry without a sound
Get out of my mind
Silence I need to find
Leave this all behind
Yet , I'm stuck
Have I ran out of luck
Everybody's pain
Can drive one insane
I haven't ran far enough
I need to remain tough
Even though it's rough
I shouldn't care
But it's most unfair
Maybe in the middle of the sea
Maybe then I'll finally be free
