Faded Memories

by TLC - Aquarius

A concrete wall surrounds me
Not even a gap to look through
I just sit there alone in the dark
Waiting for a different view

I can't remember what the sky looks like
Or the smell of fresh spring air
I have become jaded toward life
Too damaged for self repair

How do I break down these walls
These walls that keep me here
I want to see the sky once more
I want to see things clear

But I cannot do it alone
I need someone there with me
To help me along the way
To remind me how to see

Until you come I sit in the dark
Too weak to break free alone
I feel myself slipping away
Faded memories becoming unknown
