I---haven't been sober for three whole months
I---am tired and screaming at the top of my lungs
Put in light where there is rage
The life I live has got to change
This---life is filled with knowledge I'll never know
This---boy in front of you has never grown
The pain I've fought for all these years
Has been shattered in my eyes and filled with tears
Chorus
So this is what life gives us
Is this why we live
Every step i take forward
I move two back
Every direction I choose
Ends in the same conclusion
It's hard for my feelings to show
There are sides of me no one will ever know
There---has to be more to me, more than I know
There---is a side to life I've never been shown
Take my life, I'll have trust in you
I have only been surrounded by the colors black and blue
Promise---that I can get over this
Promise---there is still hope, I didn't miss
Show me only what I've seen in dreams
Grasp my hand, and help me understand
Chorus
