I let it grow inside I ran away I was so scared Never fought against it My soul was crying But I kept the voices deep inside I buried all my dreams Maybe I had a vision But I never learnt to fly Abandoned and mistaken I was falling high Once I was afraid to live Now I'm so afraid to fade away Once I had something to give But I fell into the shades of gray - with empty hands The fear is the curtain Falling on and on The shadows on the wall Are growing so tall The fear is like the fire Behind the closed door You feed the flames by running away Maybe I had a vison But I never learnt to fly Abandoned and mistaken I was falling high Once I was afraid to live Now I'm so afraid to fade away Once I had something to give But I fell into the shades of gray Once I was afraid to live I was afraid to live Now I'm so afraid to fade away Afraid to fade away Once I had something to give I had something to give But I fell into the shades of gray with empty hands
