Somewhere To Go

The days pass slow
The nights even slower
The hours spent thinking of my mistake
Has kept me awake

I can't have you now
I lost that chance
It slipped out of my hand

Like water on a web
Gone at the first light

The pain still lingers
I can't help but wonder
What I did that went wrong

We all hide our pain in the masqurade
pretend that everything's alright
But we cry at home, feeling alone
The pain stops us and we all know...

This won't be our home
We never felt more alone
the darkness will consume
as it will hide the truth
we all want to know that there's somewhere to go
