Can someone see me from the inside?
See me for what I am?
Can someone live the life I live
And tell with honesty "I understand you"
Without hesitation?

Can someone see the lonliness in my eyes?
See the river of all tears I've cried?
Inside me there is an ocean so deep
And I am drawn towards its bottom

I am drowning in my own sorrow
And there is no place for me to go
Somewhere I belong
Help me

Show me the light and the path
Show me the meaning and the essence
And I will always follow
And I will always follow your footsteps
In admiration of your strength

What else can I do
For you who lifted my sorrow
and held me up so I could breathe?

Looking deep into my eyes
I am afraid and I am sorry
Because I couldn't be the one you wanted me to be
I couldn't live up to your expectations
I am sorry for I have to fail you this way

But I will always remember and treasure
The shared moments I had with you
For me they are important
More important than my own life

I am sorry to leave you
Leave you who showed me to breathe
But maybe we'll meet again
Some other time and in a different life

So it seems there are still some more tears for me to cry
"Goodbye"
I at least know that I tried
