Someday, Someone

you can cry if you want to
but in the end
no one can win this battle but you
you can lie to the world
and be it's friend
or you can turn back the lies and reveal the truth

someday
someone
will matter enough
and you'll say it
sometime
when the feeling is right
someday
someone
will see see through your pain
and embrace you
sometime
you'll be seeing the light

you can live in the darkness
that holds you still
no one can free this prisoner but you
you can sing to yourself
but you never will
or you can sing to the world and let the dream come true

someday
someone
will matter enough
and you'll say it
sometime
when the feeling is right
someday
someone
will see see through your pain
and embrace you
sometime
you'll be seeing the light
