Silhouette


I'm tired of waking up in tears,
'Cause I can't put to bed these phobias and fears.
I'm new to this grief I can't explain,
But I'm no stranger to the heartache and the pain.

The fire I began is burning me alive,
But I know better than to leave and let it die.

And I'm a silhouette,
Asking every now and then,
"Is it over yet? 
Will I ever feel again?"
And I'm a silhouette,
Chasing rainbows on my own.
But the more I try to move on,
The more I feel alone.
So I watch the summer stars to lead me home. 

I'm sick of the past I can't erase.
A jumble of footprints and hasty steps I can't retrace. 
A mountain of things I still regret
Is a vile reminder that I would rather just forget. 

The fire I began is burning me alive,
But I know better than to leave and let it die.

And I'm a silhouette,
Asking every now and then,
"Is it over yet? 
Will I ever smile again?"
And I'm a silhouette,
Chasing rainbows on my own.
But the more I try to move on,
The more I feel alone.
So I watch the summer stars to lead me home. 

I walk alone.
No matter where I go, I walk alone.
I walk alone, no matter where I go. 

And I'm a silhouette,
Asking every now and then,
"Is it over yet? 
Will I ever love again?"
And I'm a silhouette,
Chasing rainbows on my own.
But the more I try to move on,
The more I feel alone.
So I watch the summer stars to lead me home. 

I watch the summer stars to lead me home. 


      I've loved this song from the first time I heard it. Yes, it's by Owl City, but throw ALL of your judgements out the window. This song is so different.

     I've waited for so long to record this. And I've done this because I've been waiting for the lyrics to make sense. And now that they finally do...I recorded it.

     My life is kind of all over the place, and sometimes I have no idea what to do. But I hope that someday I'll find my summer star to lead me home. Wherever home may be.
