There was a darkness, that soothed me, and raised me up to dream

In an abyss, those nightmares, they’re not what they seem

They whispered of a world they’d known

Where every child was their own

All the colours of an oil spill when moonlight hits the wave, I’ll save you all

You’ve seen all the things that I’ve seen, you’ve been all the places I’ve been, my friend

You know all the things that I know, well maybe not all but most so who cares? Who is better or worse than anyone?

I’ve made mistakes along the way, but who said things should stay the same? I don’t agree

The universe is filled with so “moray” new exciting things to see, for you and me

You don’t need saving, you can save yourself

You’re all so special from the inside out

Just take a second, look how far we’ve come

I bet if the nightmares could see me now they’d say well done

Well done, well done, well done daughter, daughter well done...

There was a darkness, that knew me, and raised me wild and strong

So hated, and so feared was she, though fearful most of all

She whispered of a hunger deep

And as old as the bones beneath her meat

All strange serenades and never sleeps yet never wakes, I’ll break your fall

You’ve done everything that you could, you feel like there’s something else you’re supposed to do

Who crossed that road, who burned that bridge, who fought that current and swam with the fish, was it you?

I’ve lost a friend, I’ve gained a friend, what’s a friend mean but a means to an end? I tried my best with

Everyone I’ve ever loved I'll outlive unless I can find where life inside me rests, it is my test

You don’t need saving, anymore, anymore

But I’m still waving from a not-so-distant shore

Just take a second, look at what you’ll start

I’m sorry that I couldn’t save you, from darkness inside your heart

Your heart, your heart, your hardened heart, friend…
