In this quiet room where shadows linger
I trace the silence with my finger
Broken whispers of a dream deferred
Asking questions yet unheard
Why does the wind know where to blow?
Why do these fears inside me grow?
Caught in the riddle of my own heart's maze
Finding comfort in the haze
Why am I here? Do you know?
Underneath the skin a faint echo
Wearing a smile that's just for show
Why am I here? Let it snow
Watch the clock as it ticks and tocks
Each second whispers what I've lost
In the mirror a stranger's face
Searching for a saving grace
Why do the stars hide from my sight?
Why does the day run back to night?
Wading through this endless grey
Hoping to find my way
Why am I here? Do you know?
Underneath the skin a faint echo
Wearing a smile that's just for show
Why am I here? Let it snow let it snow let it snow
In the depths I hear a call
Fighting through this shadowed pall
Maybe there's light I'm meant to find
Or am I just lost in my mind?
Why am I here? Do you know?
Underneath the skin a faint echo
Wearing a smile that's just for show
Why am I here? Let it snow let it snow
In whispers low the night will speak
Of the strength found when we're weak
Underneath the facade the truth will roar
Still wondering why am I here?
