You say I don’t understand,
I understand only too well.
Admit that it’s got out of hand,
It was Heaven, but now it’s hell.
And I know you chase the darkness,
As a blanket for all your pain,
Cos I know what it’s like to chase,
That darkness again and again.
You say I don’t understand,
Your deep rooted feeling of shame.
Embarrassed to reach out your hand,
I know, as I once felt the same.
And I know you chase the darkness,
Convinced that you’re too weak to fight,
But I’m here for you regardless,
Cos now it’s time to chase the light.
And I know you chase the darkness,
To hide away from all your pain.
And I know what it’s like to chase,
That darkness again and again. (X2)
