[Intro]
When I opened up the gates, I found time twisted a midnight day
How did I get home yesterday? My sense of self I'm sure of
It's a good morning, carry on, maybe I'll go back to being lost
Going through this familiar yet unknown place, forgotten
[Verse]
Just when I thought it was over
It had turned out that I was doing fine
Tried to hide my shame in living
When this world can be so unforgiving
I'll figure what I have to do, even if I have forgotten
'Cause if I don't the pain will become too much to take
[Pre-Chorus]
Raise up your head to see, those eyes so dark, big, and black
It's because I looked at you, that this spark's become ignited
[Chorus]
I'm surrounded by this world and it's painted in colors I've chosen
Where do I find a meaning in the scars I couldn't choose?
Am I my own story's hero? The center of my own world
I stand before you, I'll be here until the very end
What do I do? Can't even pretend that I'm empty
[Post-Chorus]
Hello, hi there, here I am, whoa
Hello, hi there, here I am, whoa
