Silence
spoke my pleasure;
Anger spoke your plague.
I betokened joy, but
You betokened rage.
I was satisfied,
My life one of contentment.
You were horrified;
A life filled with resentment.
Life is full
of strife;
That much, I will concede.
You embrace the call
I simply cannot heed.
You have no cold fear
For what could happen next.
I remain immobilized
By happiness.
Chorus
I fear the future, but you don't;
I shun the unknown, but you won't;
Your discomfort zone has
Plainly served you well.
I yearn to break free, but I shan't;
I must move onward, but I can't;
For my comfort zone has
Suddenly become a prison cell.
You reached
out your hand;
I brushed your fingertips.
I cried out in shock;
You gently closed my lips.
You knew then what I
Could not hope to believe:
That I'd never understand
Why you would grieve.
Chorus
I can't see
things through your eyes.
I can't hear things through your ears.
I can't feel things through your heart.
I can't comprehend your fears.
I can only glimpse
The teardrops of your weeping heart.
I cannot know the weight it bears;
This ignorance tears me apart inside.
Bless me
with a guiding light;
Strengthen me within my fight.
Help me overcome my blindness,
So that I may look ahead.
Shatter shackles, break my bonds;
I can finally move beyond
My comfort zone, and live a life
I can be proud to say I led.
I can be
proud to say I led.
