All That I Am

Andrade Words

far worse to be seen ...
(unseen)
deep sadness permeates me.
(consumes me)

oh, why i succumbed to the ways
(the dark weather days)
that emptied me.
(carried me away)

who i thought i am,
the path i chose to go,
is lost in this fog closing in.
(with a man I don't know)

all that i am,
all that i know,
all the things that matter most,
(to me)
every little hope,
every little wish,
imprisoned inside here with me!
(and the man I don't know)

far worse to be dreamed ...
(undreamed)
deep paralysis sedates me.
(entombs me)

oh, why i heeded the voice
(grew numb to the choice)
that deadened me.
(buried me away)

who i really am,
the path i need to go,
is lost in this fog closing in.
(with a man I don't know)

all that i am,
all that i know,
all the things that matter most,
(to me)
every little hope,
every little wish,
crying out from inside here with me!
(and the man I don't know)

oh, i know
i won't ever know,
(can't ever)
not when i'm this way.
(every single day)
my heart absorbs the pain.

oh, i know
i can't live this way,
(reclusive here)
surrendered day to day.
(I am all I am)
all that i know,

i must go.
