In the wake of morning light,
These thoughts that I can’t defend
Better keep this to myself,
The dark it calls me a friend
All this time my door was closed to you
But I see now what I'm supposed to do

Cause I’m on the outside, but not looking in
I know the path to take, but I can’t get myself to begin
So what’s the upside, to walk through the pain?
I know the path to take, and I’m the only one in my way

The daylight is fading fast, but how can I move along?
The old fears are coming back, the ones that I thought were gone
The world has been kind to me, it’s true
But I can’t send that that kindness back to you
