Somebody Else's Fear

Do yourself a favour
And throw a special glance deep inside tonight
Then show them all you're present, have nothing to hide
And never reach out for temptation
Bury away the hurting, the joys inside
The final picture framed will shine so bright, but it was once alive

What if this should ever slip your mind?
Would I sink beneath the waves of smiles and memories, in time?
Where the letters here to slowly turn to white?
Are the pages in the book the only memories we made tonight?

I can't believe we ever stood here
I can't exist in somebody else's fear
Heart gives away your true intentions my dear
And I won't concede that I was just a drawing, a line
'Cause we were there you know this
You had to notice
Was I ever even alive?

Do us all a favour
And stay away from stories we strive to hide
Then wipe away the footprint, and leave them to die
And never ask for consolation
I cannot grant the comfort, the peace of mind
No final words to say, no smiles exchanged but we were once alive
