Wide awake like the ghost of the past Why do the best of dreams never last? Counting sheep but there is never rest Longing for something more than this Chasing shadows in the dead of night Hoping one day I'll feel alive But the silence is deafening And the darkness is closing in I'm on the pursuit of happiness But it feels like I'm chasing emptiness Every step I take, I'm losing ground In this endless search, I haven't found The peace I crave, the light I seek In this maze, I feel so weak But I'll keep moving, won't give in Hoping someday, I'll begin again
