I cast my hopes and dreams
Out amongst the waves
And pray someday that I'll be saved
I give it all I can
And despite how hard I try
I can't seem to keep it all inside
As time ticks by
I want another try
Before I die
Let me go
In the city of wires
I feel lost and alone
Emptiness the blade I hone
The days all blur together
Nothing seems to be real
I don't even know how to feel
As time ticks by
I want another try
Before I die
Let me go
Let the rain come down
And wash me away
When the teardrops stop
I'll wish for a brand new day
What happened to the days
Where I used to be so sure
Back when I used to be so pure
Afraid of my own shadow
And the words others say
A puppet on the stage I play
As time ticks by
I want another try
Before I die
Let me go
Let the rain come down
And wash me away
When the teardrops stop
I'll wish for a brand new day
Let it wash away the pain
Like tears in the rain
I don't want
To fade
Into the grey
This is my life
It can't end this way
