The half light
Silent Cry Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I let the smile go away, without want it
The last hope went to far away
Now I became prisioner of a past
A cheat past with lost dreams

One day I had the stars in my hands
One day I touched the moon with my heart
Peaces of my packed in secrets
And by my self, I live in a fantasy kingdom

My feelings are walking right to the sea
And with them, my eyes get lost
I keep trying to hide my tomorrow in the darkness
But all alone, I suplicate for the day light

I know you know the way to heaven
Letme follow you to start to smile again
I know we can be more if we hold our hands
And in that way, I'll look to my future and think about you

Helpme being by my side
Shinning my steps softening my pain




Healing my hurts destroying my past
Wiping my tears forgetting what is gone

Line by Line Meaning

I let the smile go away, without want it
I lost my ability to smile without realizing it


The last hope went to far away
I have lost all hope for a better future


Now I became prisioner of a past
My past has trapped me and I cannot escape its hold


A cheat past with lost dreams
My past has not been truthful to me and I have lost all my dreams as a result


One day I had the stars in my hands
There was a time when I felt like I could achieve anything


One day I touched the moon with my heart
I felt like I could touch the impossible with my emotions


Peaces of my packed in secrets
I keep my fragmented self hidden in secrets


And by my self, I live in a fantasy kingdom
I live in a world of make-believe to escape the pain of reality


My feelings are walking right to the sea
I feel like my emotions are leading me to inevitable destruction


And with them, my eyes get lost
My emotions cloud my judgment and I cannot see a clear path


I keep trying to hide my tomorrow in the darkness
I am afraid of what the future holds and try to escape it


But all alone, I suplicate for the day light
Deep down, I yearn for a better tomorrow and hope for the light to shine through


I know you know the way to heaven
I trust in you to show me the path to a better life


Letme follow you to start to smile again
I want to follow you and get back my happiness
