As I sit here and slowly close my eyes I take another deep breath And feel the wind pass through my body I'm the one in your soul Reflecting in the light Protect the ones who hold you Cradling your inner child I need serenity In a place where I can hide I need serenity Nothing changes, days go by Where do we go when we just don't know?

Tragic visions slowly stole my life Tore away everything Cheating me out of my time I'm the one who loves you No matter wrong or right And every day I hold you I hold you with my inner child I need serenity In a place where I can hide I need serenity Nothing changes, days go by Where do we go when we just don't know? And how do we relight the flame when it's cold? Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing? And when will we learn to control? Where do we go when we just don't know? And how do we relight the flame when it's cold? Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing? And when will we learn to control? I need serenity I need serenity

Decisions made from desperation No way to go Internal instincts craving isolation For me to grow My fears come alive In this place where I once died Demons dreaming Knowing I, I just needed to realign Fell in a river of illusion And apathy Drowning in a self-induced confusion I'd rather be, yeah My fears come alive In this place where I once died Demons dreaming Knowing I, I just needed to realign My fears come alive In this place where I once died Demons dreaming Knowing I, I just needed to realign, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah My fears come alive In this place where I once died Demons dreaming Knowing I, I just needed to realign My fears come alive In this place where I once died Demons dreaming Knowing I, I just needed to realign, yeah
