Candle in The Wind
No one cares if my light flickers out,
No one dares question or figures me out.
You only see happiness from a mile,
But never see my cries from a smile.
I scream so loud that it deafens the sound,
My muted cries never touch the ground.
It’s so easy to just close my eyes,
Cause when awake my emotion flies.
No one is around to feel my pain,
Could you tell I was crying in the rain?
I just want to let it all go in the wind,
I’m a candle smiling without a grin.
I’ve been searching for answers but lost the question,
My mind seems to have lost it’s only possession.
Expressions look up but in a downward twist,
I can’t seem to focus I’m lost in a mist.
It’s dark where I’m going, I can’t see,
The tunnels getting dimmer, but it can’t be.
Too much to gain so much to lose,
Do I go left, what’s the right path to choose?
If I take that road it’s a dead end,
If I go back then I’m falling again.
Can’t I just leave I don’t want to stay,
I just want to get on my knees and pray.
He puts me in a better place,
Or when I’m thinking of your embrace.
It’s gotta be light even in this dark,
I’m the candle I gotta find the spark!
No one dares question or figures me out.
You only see happiness from a mile,
But never see my cries from a smile.
I scream so loud that it deafens the sound,
My muted cries never touch the ground.
It’s so easy to just close my eyes,
Cause when awake my emotion flies.
No one is around to feel my pain,
Could you tell I was crying in the rain?
I just want to let it all go in the wind,
I’m a candle smiling without a grin.
