Fleeting time
and senseless days
—who was it that told me
I could do what I want?
So I gathered my soul
and told myself that
I have worth
What do I do to
keep on living?
—I kill the lights

The lights to what?
Perhaps the light to peace
or the light to self
The lights that tell you
that I am seen and bright

Seeing lines
and relentless years
—who was it that told me
I could go wherever I wish?
So I gathered my all
and told myseld that
I have a future
What do I do to
keep on dreaming?
—I kill the lights

The lights to what?
Perhaps the light to trick
my life into believing
I have what it takes
to achieve or the light to
push forward for my
right to be listened to
The lights that tell you
that I am enough
to be heard

Fleeing rhyme
and endless haze
—who was it that told me
I could be whomever I want?
So I gathered the pieces
of my soul and
told myself that
I have to live to win
What do I do to
keep on fighting?
—I kill the lights
