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
