I thought I lost it all,My heart was already to small.I walked in this with nothing to take,There was nothing left to forsake.Just do this and walk away,Never a thought of wanting to stay.After all I already been through before,There was nothing anybody would want me for.There was no possible way anyone could see,The light that shined so bright in me.It was now covered in a dark abyss,I knew it was nothing anyone would miss.But you took me by surprise,You could see the light through my eyes.How could this possibly be,That you could see past my misery?You left me so confused,After all I was meant to be used.I couldn’t help but to try,I just had to find out why.And now I feel my light will return,Brighter than ever it will burn.
