All That I Am - Pellek

far worse to be seen …

(unseen)

deep sadness permeates me.

(consumes me)

oh, why i succumbed to the ways

(the dark weather days)

that emptied me.

(carried me away)

who i thought i am,

the path i chose to go,

is lost in this fog closing in.

(with a man I don’t know)

all that i am,

all that i know,

all the things that matter most,

(to me)

every little hope,

every little wish,

imprisoned inside here with me!

(and the man I don’t know)

far worse to be dreamed …

(undreamed)

deep paralysis sedates me.

(entombs me)

oh, why i heeded the voice

(grew numb to the choice)

that deadened me.

(buried me away)

who i really am,

the path i need to go,

is lost in this fog closing in.

(with a man I don’t know)

all that i am,

all that i know,

all the things that matter most,

(to me)

every little hope,

every little wish,

crying out from inside here with me!

(and the man I don’t know)

oh, i know

i won’t ever know,

(can't ever)

not when i’m this way.

(every single day)

my heart absorbs the pain.

oh, i know

i can’t live this way,

(reclusive here)

surrendered day to day.

(I am all I am)

all that i know,

i must go.
