Void Within Lyrics

Falling through the sky

I land on my feet

In a place that

I know I've been

I question why

The path before me

Is a road

I'll walk again

I heave a sigh

As I follow the trail

That will lead me

To where I am

My hand waves goodbye

The world starts to spin

I see myself waiting

Around the next bend

Endless circles are boxing me in

Crescent moons are spinning again

I need to find a place to hide

Past the corners of my windswept mind

Illusions cloud my sight

Block my mind, distort what's right

They've left an empty well

Created fear I can't dispel

The foggy haze I see through

Obscures my mind no matter what I do

It will not dissipate, it leaves no space

In this lonely time and place

Nobody's dying to be

A hollow man, a shell like me

But what I am is who I was

I've never changed my lifelong flaws

Everything is falling apart

Every dream I had is dead and gone

I'm left crawling, barely hanging on

But all I can do is carry on

Help me see the road ahead for me

Help me ignore the voices in the wind

That guide me back to where I've been

Help me feel the things I know are real

Help me restore the choices in my life

That led me to this void within

Waiting patiently, on solid ground I stand

I find it more enjoyable than sinking in the sand

I will see myself through this pain

I will attain

Waiting impatiently, on shaky ground I am

Most times it's more desirable than facing who I am

I will find my way through life's terrain

I will attain

Soul-searching to attain a way despite the pain

Soul-searching to attain a way through life's terrain

Moving forward

To fall behind

Holding on

To lose my mind

Checking in

When I'm checked out

Wearing in

What's been worn out

Rising up

To fall back down

Leaving shore

To run aground

Breaking ties

To bind them fast

Looking forward

To what has passed

Killing time

To bring to life

A fractured thought

That won't arrive

A hollow shell

That's filled inside

With all the tears

That I have cried

A life in need of change

Creates a void within

What counts is right here and now

Pick a new path, begin

Everything was falling apart

Every dream I had was dead and gone

I was left crawling, barely hanging on

But now I know I'll carry on

I can see the road ahead for me

I can ignore the voices in the wind

That took me back to where I'd been

I can feel the things I know are real

I have restored the choices in my life

And I'm no longer void within
