lyrics

Goodbye Darkness, my old friend
We’ll meet again on this dusty road of dreams
and bends, I’m on the mend
Building up my self-esteem.

Hello Silence, glad you called
I’ve felt so small among the halls of memory
Where we used to speak
And trade tales of treachery

My old friends say I’m weak
Unsatisfied by me,
Too busy chasing away my old shadows.
What they don’t know or see
Is that I’m free
No shackles or chains binding me
To a preconceived notion of a life that I’ve been told to lead.

They don’t see I’m working hard on me.

Hello Sunlight, my old friend
You shine again on this gilded spectral plane’s
Lands’ end, let’s transcend!
Moving past the points of pain.

Hello Uproar, glad you called
I’m feeling tall in this monumental change
In flames, I can’t explain!
I’m moving past the points of shame.

My old friends say I’m weak
Unsatisfied by me.
Too busy chasing away my sad old ways
What they don’t know or see is that I’m free
No shackles or chains binding me
to the preconceived notion of a man that I’m supposed to be.

They don’t see I’ve broken myself free
