The first thing to appear in front of my eyes, was Light
It consumed all I was and it surrounded my heart
It was my power, more than what my “family” expected
That strength could free me, could change my Fate
It consumed all I was and it surrounded my heart
I hadn’t ever felt so strong as when he smiled at me
That strength could free me, could change my Fate
He became my brother, my dearest friend
I hadn’t ever felt so strong as when he smiled at me
But he’s gone now, consumed by the darkness
He became my brother, my dearest friend
My Light should have saved him, I tried
But he’s gone now, consumed by the darkness
His smiled turned bitter and wicked
My Light should have saved him, I tried
But now I stare at him as he talks
His smile turned bitter and wicked
He’s not my brother anymore
But now I stare at him as he talks
I close my eyes and Hope.
He’s not my brother anymore
He made that clear when he turned away, months ago
I closed my eyes and Hope.
Maybe I could do better now, bring him back, but he won’t come
He made that clear when he turned away, months ago
I hear footsteps approaching, eyes still squeezed closed
Maybe I could do better now, bring him back, but he won’t come
I start to open my eyes, deep breath
I hear footsteps approaching, eyes still squeezed closed
I know those aren’t his footsteps but I hope
I start to open my eyes, deep breath
The first thing to appear in front of my eyes, was Light
