Silhouette

I'm tired of waking up in tears

'Cause I can't put to bed

these phobias and fears

I'm new to this grief I can't explain

But I'm no stranger to the

heartache and the pain



The fire I began

is burning me alive

But I know better than to

leave and let it die



I'm a silhouette asking every now and then

"Is it over yet? Will I ever feel again?"

I'm a silhouette chasing rainbows on my own

But the more I try to move on,

the more I feel alone

So I watch the summer stars

to lead me home



I'm sick of the past I can't erase

A jumble of footprints

and hasty steps I can't retrace

The mountain of things I still regret

Is a vile reminder that

I would rather just forget



The fire I began is

burning me alive

But I know better than to

leave and let it die



I'm a silhouette asking

every now and then

"Is it over yet?

Will I ever smile again?"

I'm a silhouette chasing

rainbows on my own

But the more I try to move on,

the more I feel alone

So I watch the summer stars

to lead me home



'Cause I walk alone

No matter where I go



I'm a silhouette asking every

now and then (now and then)

"Is it over yet? Will I ever love again?"

I'm a silhouette chasing

rainbows on my own

But the more I try to move on,

the more I feel alone

So I watch the summer stars

to lead me home



I watch the summer stars to lead me home.

The Phantom

I had a dream about me, I dreamt I was in a world where I was alone.

I breathed the air around me and searched for life, I saw you nearby.

I talked to you but you didn't seem to hear me, I touched you and you did not seem to notice.

I began to wonder if I was just a phantom, if I really exsisted at all in your world.

I believed that if you would just reach out and touch me, I would know for sure I was really there.

I hoped someone would touch me, just to prove to me that I wasn't a phantom after all.

But you wouldn't reach out to me, so I tried to wake up.

But I could not, for this was reality. And you did not see me, I was invisable to you.

I had no place in your world.
