numb no longer

i can finally see
what's been inside of me
waiting so silently
to be set free.

now it releases
with every chance it gets
and i'm so very tired
but i'll never regret

because if not for this pain
i'd be going insane
walkin' 'round with no soul
craving emotions i'd only
...been told of.

i'd be missing the thoughts
that were jailed in my mind.
if i didn't explode
for that very first time.

so now i am left
with anger and pain
but through all the tears
at least i have gained

the knowledge to live
and the courage to go on.
i won't lie to anyone,
i was praying to be gone.

but at least now i know
that i do have a soul
and i do want to live
i do want to give

and i do want the world to know.
