Drifting
Feels like I'm drifting on this journey
Trying to find a hope to cling to
Trying to keep the light alive
Somewhere
Some time ago I was a dreamer
But then those dreams, they shattered
Like the glass on which I tread
Dreams are memories in my head
Life seems so unstable, yet
Still those things that keep me going through
The happiness I find in friends, like you
Not so long ago I didn't have a care
I didn't have a heart or a hope to share
And then I met you
You brought me through
You gave me strength to do those things I couldn't do
I wanted to break free, I wanted to be me
I wanted to stop living in this treachery
And then I met you,
You showed me a way out
You showed me what true friendship was all about
Where would I be without my true company?
I'd still be lost in that rhythm, in that monotony
It may seem hard now, and the hope may seem dim
But with my friends here I'll bet I can win
Where would I be without my friends beside me?
I'd still be locked up in here without a door or a key
But somehow I still managed to break free
Break free...
Break free...
So even though my dreams seem so very far away
With my friends I long to stay
