Song Description
Losing everyone and everything you ever loved, and were close to through death or dissapearance. The song is pretty visually discriptive to help you understand the setting, and you wonder how you got there this fast in the first place. There is nothing left for you now, and because you feel like you don't have anything to live for, everyday is constantly repeating without change. All you have left now are the shattered memories of what used to be, shards left over from the happiest moments of your life. So you adapt, erase memories, and close everything off, all light, all potential, and put up a guard to scare people away. You seem just fine, meanwhile it is agony inside. You don't recognize yourself.You desperately wish for someone to come back, someone to come into your life like magic, showing that your emotions aren't dead, you aren't just a shell and that you are still real, still alive. You want so desperately to love again, and be close with someone again, though when you realize that this is happening you run far far away for fear of losing them. Yet, you still sense a glimmer of hope that maybe if you let down the guard, love without loss is a real possibility.

Lyrics
MidnightDarknessPhotographs and broken mirrorsThat's all that i'm left with nowClosed offSecret escapeI guard myself and memoriesShattered pictures of who I once was Don't get close to me nowEven though I need affectionI can't feel cause I'm not realAnd I'm not sure if I ever wasCHORUS
Though I always pretendThat I am fine on my ownI secretly long to be rescued and never let goMorningDawn BreaksShut out the lightsMy hiding placeLocked away from the whole worldThrown awayWhat i've always beenSo stop tryingTo get inDon't know If I can go onThough I crave your embraceI will keep my heart protectedDon't attempt to break throughOr i'll just shut you outCHORUS
Though I always pretend that I am fine on my ownI secretly long to be rescued and never let goShow me how to feel before I turn into stoneI want to know that it's realShow me something that I've never knownBRIDGE
\
What is this placeI'm trying to turn awayTo feel joyTo feel blissTo feel LoveCHORUS
Though I always pretend that I am fine on my ownI secretly long to be rescued and never let goShow me how to feel before I turn into stoneI want to know that it's realShow me something that I've never knownAll music and lyrics written by klaryssa korol. Copyright 2009.
