Into the Blue
cain´s offering Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I dared to hope and I dared to dream
Once long ago lights were brighter for me
This world was mine to keep
I traveled so far defying the dawn
Just to see where this road leads
My foolish hunt, unbroken *unscarred* was whole
Once long a go I felt lost without you
And life had lift me high and *dry*
Once long ago didn't know what to do
Alone inside my mind
So far away, from where I'm today
No one can reach my heart
Until the day my darkness freed away
And into the blue
[Chorus:]
Out of the darkness and into the blue
Still broken and scarred but I'm over you
For every scar and every tear that falls
Means I'm healing
Where are you now, are you thinking of me?
When you look in the mirror, what do you see
The burden you bear and the secret you keep
Reminding you endlessly
I'm being broken for a while
But I'm not missing you
[Chorus:]
Out of the darkness; into the blue
Where you don't want me and I don't need you
Thou I'm down and thou I'm torn apart
I'm still breathing
[Chorus:]
Out of the darkness; into the blue
Where you don't want me and I don't need you
Thou I'm down and thou I'm torn apart
I'm still breathing
Out of the darkness and into the blue
Where you don't want me and I don't need you
Thou I'm down and thou I'm torn apart
My heart's beating
