Wandering whether I will survive,
Or if I’ll be killed, alive,
Each beat goes by too fast,
Soon I’ll fade into the past.

Soon I’ll be gone,
And become no one,
The girl I used to be,
Is still inside of me.

No one hears the silent cry,
No one see’s I want to die,
They’re all blind and deaf,
Soon there will be nothing left.

The day has arrived and my time has come,
Time to let go and stop the sweet hum,
Into the darkness which is shaded,
The broken young girl finally faded.
