Lament for Lost Dreams
guitar chords lyrics
I woke up one day,
And didn't know whence I came.
I looked back one day,
And nothing spoke my name.
I saw myself from afar,
And could not comprehend.
I felt a throbbing scar,
And knew it would never mend.
I beheld the path behind me,
And the weeds were growing tall.
I looked where my footsteps should be,
But there was nothing there at all.
I knelt down without a sound,
Feeling the emptiness inside.
I buried my face in the ground,
I knelt down without a sound,
Feeling the emptiness inside.
I buried my face in the ground,
Screaming silently to stem the tide.
I will cry out into the night,
And let my anguish die away.
I will thrust my agony aside,
To prepare for a new day.
In this moment my strength failed,
I was falling through the ground.
In the distance my soul wailed,
All my parts became unbound.
In this moment I felt strong,
I could see me inside out.
And my soul it came along,
So effacing my pitch-dark bout.
I cried for what was not meant to be,
A last tribute to lost dreams.
I had to leave behind my effigy,
And with it bury all my screams.
I turned around and looked straight on,
Aware of the crossroads up ahead.
I felt my fear the first time gone,
And saw a future for me to tread.
I will cry out into the night,
And let my anguish die away.
I will thrust my agony aside,
To prepare for a new day.
