The stillness of a city with nothing
The uncertainty of a hand holding nothing
But with just myself
And these two eyes, I hold the remains of a dream

The awkwardness of a room with no sound
My days without you are so vapid
Yet once again
I rise up with just myself
To this reality that spreads out before me

Though we may be struck by heavy rain
Words you hold onto alone at night
Compassion and sadness are
In short, empathy
Might be where our souls exist
See

Already awake
Kicked the door open and
Ran through the morning sunset skies now
The sound of you out of breath
The sound of the city streets at dawn veiled in dew
Moving forward every day, in rumpled fashion
Crossed an asphalt ocean
You'll see freedom lying way beyond
Over there, the world shouts out
Incessantly

Scenery instilled in us from our birthplace
Negate a destiny linked to irises and skin and
Just dream of a future where all is accepted
Dreams

Though at times we may face strong winds
The tears you spilled all alone
Compassion and sadness are surely
In short, empathy and
Might be where our souls exist
See

Already awake
Kicked the door open and
Ran through the morning sunset skies now
The sound of you out of breath
The sound of the city streets at dawn veiled in dew
Moving forward every day, in rumpled fashion
Crossed an asphalt ocean
You'll see freedom lying just beyond
Over there, the world shouts out

Your name

The stillness of a city with nothing
The uncertainty of a hand holding nothing
But with just myself
And these two eyes, I hold the remains of a dream
