I'm just waiting for my life to start, hoping this is my future.
Will these words be sung back to me or will they be lost in memory?
I'd just sit for days, whilst time passed me by,

In a place where lives are dead ends, who will I become?

I'm sick of the silence, the emptiness inside,

I'm hungry for more but only the lucky are fed.
There's a conflict in me without resolution.
I'll fight the battle till the end but I need you on my side.


I'd forsake all I own just for a taste of the road,
All I have is her to keep me earthed.

Do I have it in me to forgive? Or do I leave you behind?
You said you're finished with all this.
But it's me that has to carry the burden of your actions.

Tell it to me straight because I'm stuck in this hole,
I need to surface but reality is just another kick in the teeth.


I'm tired of caring for what others have done to tarnish my feelings.
I know I'm better than this, so I'll live for myself.
