Lyrics

You say you can’t go on like this
Your thoughts careening off into a dark abyss
There’s a longing going on inside your heart
You're asking where to look
Deep inside yourself is a good place to start

You search for answers, living life by what they say
Your only problem is, you're blocking your own way
You tried to find someone with a love you thought was true
But it’s all just a dream until you love the one inside of you

Now I’m not trying to convince you how to live your life
In fact, sometimes I think I’m only talking to myself
But still I understand the way you feel
All the emptiness and deep confusion
God knows that I’ve been in that place so many times

If you could step back, take a look at yourself now
You see a person who was trying to get out
You wear that mask so well, it makes you seem so strong
One glance behind the guise reveals a place where something has gone wrong

Now I’m not trying to convince you how to live your life
In fact, sometimes I think I’m only talking to myself
But still I understand the way you feel
All the emptiness and deep confusion
God knows that I’ve been in that place so many times

You say you can’t go on like this
Your thoughts careening off into a dark abyss
There’s a longing going on inside your heart
You’re asking where to look
Deep inside yourself is a good place to start
A good place to start
