on this day, this time of passage I need to make my statement now where I'll go is still uncertain to what I've left I can't return this moment's lost, gone forever I need to listen to this voice whispering from deep inside me telling things I fear to hear: as a rite of passage you want to turn away from everything you have created in this world when you felt so unknown you blame the sun for all her light that ever fell your way you push everything away and claim that you're alone and now you say you feel alone and now your heart has turned to stone on this day, this time of passage I?ve forgotten what is true neglecting these feelings of compassion only believing what I see I want to break these bonds around me stand alone untouched by none still I hear this voice behind me re-defining who I am
