A Blind Bat

I'm not the person that i was, who you knew
many years i wasted in being almost
because i didn't know how to reveal to you1my weaknesses
i even told myself stories about myself
 
I'm a blind bat
shouting out my life in the darkness
i sleep and my heart is awake
i'm an addict of happiness
i write a song at night
it cleans the sadness from me
when i can't breathe2
i cry alone in my car
and you cry inside
i see you burning
you're afraid of agreeing
that this is not just a passing period
i write a song at night
it cleans the sadness from me
when i can't breathe
i cry alone in my car
 
Give me strength
to find courage within me
to see a sign
because even the child that was within me
died sometime ago
 
I'm not the person that i dreamed
who that you imagined, i opened my eyes
and changed slowly
 
Into a blind bat
shouting out my life in the darkness
i sleep and my heart is awake
i'm an addict of happiness
i write a song at night
it cleans the sadness from me
when i can't breathe
i cry alone in my car
and you1cry inside
i see you burning
you're afraid of agreeing
that this is not just a passing period
i write a song at night
it cleans the sadness from me
when i can't breathe
i cry alone in my car
 
If there are still eyes3
if you still
if you for ever
if there is a new heaven then give me a hand
