Dark Days

Learning to breathe again,
For the first time,
In so long now.
Learning to see again,
Through my pride.
Learning to speak again,
From my heart.
Learning to be a friend,
For the first time,
For the first time,
In so long,
For so long,
For so long,
For so long,
For so long,
For so long,
For so long,
For so long.
Feel like I'm losing time,
When I worry,
'Cause yesterday won't change.
Starting to free my mind,
From the shadow of doubt,
That keeps me in darkness.
Testing the air outside,
My chamber,
Into the danger.
Pushing my limits high,
To the red line and over,
And why have I waited,
So long,
For so long,
For so long,
For so long,
For so long,
For so long,
For so long-
Oh.
Why have I waited?
Why have I waited, yeah.
Well it's hard to be happy,
In a world that's so cruel,
Where the weak just get weaker,
Where the powerful feud.
Where the children go hungry,
While the soldiers stand by, hey,
Lay down your weapons,
Take hold of your lives.
And when will we learn,
That it's hate that breeds hate?
Only love is the cure,
Don't leave it too late.
Get up, and feel it,
The truth that won't wait.
If we choose to do nothing,
Then we take all the blame.
