the less i become

the more you're becoming

my name next to nothing

i'm followed closer in the steps i lead

one in front of the other

carrying me

and burying me



i want you to be

the beacon on my sea

the change in me

i want you to see

my softer side

my darker side



i've learned that i've lost all i've loved

and all for a first love

my life can live and die with me

but i'll never be enough to replace you

to face you



i want you to be

the beacon on my sea

the change in me

i want you to see

my softer side

my darker side



i want you to be

the beacon on my sea

the change in me

i want you to see

my softer side

my darker side



these cold hands are callusing

bring me to reality

take my mind

and these tired eyes

break my pride

my darker side
