Never

A thousand unseen tears,
A thousand unheard wails...
A thousand unknown fears,
Your life becomes your jail...

And they'll never know,
They'll never know
The nights you cried yourself
To sleep...
They'll never know your deepest wish
To drown in the ocean
Deep...

A thousand unseen tears,
A thousand unheard wails...
A thousand unknown fears,
Your life becomes your jail...

And they'll never know,
They'll never know
How much you dream of
Escaping...
They'll never know how you
Wish yourself away
In between dreams and waking...
They'll never know,
They'll never know
What life is like on your own,
They'll never know
Just what it's like
To walk the earth
Alone...
They'll never know what it's like
When your friends have left you
Cold,
When they push you away
And set you apart
Because you broke
The mould.

*                  *                  *

A thousand darkest nights,
A thousand lonely hours,
Memories that begin to fade
Like a thousand wilting flowers...

And you'll never know,
You'll never know
It's not you I hate,
It's me...
And you'll never know
This war within
And how I wish
I could be free...
You'll never know,
You'll never know
How I dream of
Kissing your lips...
How I long to trace your every outline
With my fingertips...

And though our worlds
Will never collide,
Though there's no
'Us' in destiny,
I long for
One moment
One day
One lifetime,
Where we dance
In harmony...
