| I’ve seen dark before
|
| But not like this
|
| This is cold
|
| This is empty
|
| This is numb
|
| The life I knew is over
|
| The lights are out
|
| Hello, darkness
|
| I’m ready to succumb
|
| I follow you around
|
| I always have
|
| But you’ve gone to a place I cannot find
|
| This grief has a gravity
|
| It pulls me down
|
| But a tiny voice whispers in my mind
|
| «You are lost, hope is gone
|
| But you must go on
|
| And do the next right thing»
|
| Can there be a day beyond this night?
|
| I don’t know anymore what is true
|
| I can’t find my direction, I’m all alone
|
| The only star that guided me was you
|
| How to rise from the floor
|
| When it’s not you I’m rising for?
|
| Just do the next right thing
|
| Take a step, step again
|
| It is all that I can to do
|
| The next right thing
|
| I won’t look too far ahead
|
| It’s too much for me to take
|
| But break it down to this next breath
|
| This next step
|
| This next choice is one that I can make
|
| So I’ll walk through this night
|
| Stumbling blindly toward the light
|
| And do the next right thing
|
| And with the dawn, what comes then
|
| When it’s clear that everything will never be the same again?
|
| Then I’ll make the choice
|
| To hear that voice
|
| And do the next right thing |
