Tell me, where will I go.

These thoughts pull me in and I can't stay alive..

When will I understand?

It takes more in life to see the light shine through the leaves.

You don't even want me..

How do I convince my heart to know better when my head's the one playing tricks?

It makes me sick..

Just to imagine a world without this.

The smiles..

Each one I see everytime I catch you staring at me..

We'll run and hide.

We'll watch the stars at night.

Together.

Who has the cure for my disease?

The one that strikes my knees just to see me fall in defeat.

Withering in my own self pity.

I'm done.

I've grown up and now I understand.

The true meaning behind all of these hours I spent pretending.

I thought I knew who I was.

The time is now to leave myself in the past and build this new me into something beautiful.

Together we can set this on fire.

And when the fire dies we'll sit laughing at all of these jokes I hide inside.

My past won't swallow me whole.

I'll never let it grasp me in it's hold again.

I know where I can find you.

I know that you want me.

You're out there somewhere.

Somehow I'll find you.

You make this worth something.

My feelings won't mislead me.

I've finally found my everything.
