Walking in the Darkness

Midnight wind against my face
The streets are still, no time, no place
I'm moving slow, but I won't stop
One foot down, then the next drop

The stars are out, but they don't shine
The road is cold, and so is mine

I'm walking in the darkness
With nothing but my heart
No compass and no promise
Just pieces torn apart
The silence walks beside me
Like it knows my name
I'm walking in the darkness
But I'm not afraid

Echoes of what used to be
Follow like old memories
I tried to leave them far behind
But some ghosts live inside the mind

The night is deep, but I still breathe
And even shadows sometimes leave

I'm walking in the darkness
With nothing but my heart
No compass and no promise
Just pieces torn apart
The silence walks beside me
Like it knows my name
I'm walking in the darkness
But I'm not afraid

Let the night take what it will
I've lost more, and I'm standing still
Maybe light will find me there
Or maybe I'll stop needing air

I'm walking in the darkness
Through every hurt I hide
No map to guide me forward
But I still survive the tide
The silence walks beside me
But it's part of who I am
I'm walking in the darkness
Learning how to stand
