Take away the dark take away the pain
Take away the scar on each and every day
Born into this not to take flight
Cold is the night gone is the light
Down is the sun, shadows of street light
Left on my own, the only thing I know
Born into this not to take flight
Cold is the night gone is the light
Man I hate to be the lonely one you see
Empty is my hand, no one holding me
Born into this not to take flight
Cold is the night gone is the light
Distant are my eyes, pale is my face
Just for that I’m quiet doesn’t mean that I’m at peace
Born into this not to take flight
Cold is the night gone is the light
