I walk all alone on the darkest of nights;
I look for the answers, I search for the light.
I search on for hours, the question so clear,
through seas of confusion with no answers near
and with no one to guide me, to show me the way.
Every step’s a mistake, for which I’ll eternally pay;
so I ask for the answers, I plead for just one.
Show me the path to the light of the sun!
Yet my questions aren’t answered – is this how it shall stay
as fear and much sorrow take my life away?
