In the darkness I reach out to you
Where have you gone I whisper softly
My eyes have been blinded by pain
Of a slap not meant for you, but I
Inside this shell lies a monster hidden
I fight each day to keep it away
From the beautiful souls around me
That have poured their lights upon me
To keep me out of cold dark emptiness
Yet I have slipped away, falling still
Searching for that out stretched hand
And in this darkness, I see no hope
I must fight another batter true strong
Alone in my fight I shall stay hopeful
Waiting for the light of a new hope
To say, come child walk this way
Hand in hand we will walk together
