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
