Am I dead? Or is this one of those dreams? 00:03

Those horrible dreams 00:10

that seems like it last forever 00:14

If I am alive, why? 00:20

Why if there is a God a whatever, something, somewhere. 00:24

Why have I been abandoned by everyone and everything I've ever known 00:31

I've ever loved. Stranded. 00:37

What is the lesson? What is the point? 00:40

God give me a sign or I have to give up. 00:44

I can't do this anymore. 00:47

Please just let me die. Being alive hurts too much. 00:51

Well you almost had me fooled 01:13

Told me that I was nothing without you 01:19

Oh after everything you've done 01:25

I can thank you for how strong I have become 01:33

Cuz you brought the flames and you put me through hell 01:38

I had to learn how to fight for myself 01:41

And we both know all the truth I could tell 01:45

I'll just say this as I wish you farewell 01:48

I hope you're somewhere praying, praying 01:51

I hope your soul is changing, changing 01:58

I hope you find your peace 02:05

Falling on your knees Praying 02:09

I'm proud of who I am 02:25

No more monsters I can breathe again 02:31

And you said that I was done 02:38

Well you were wrong and now the best is yet to come 02:44

Cuz I can make it on my own 02:50

I don't need you, I've found a strength I've never known 02:57

I'll bring thunder I'll bring rain 03:04

When I'm finished they won't even know your name 03:11

You brought the flames and you put me through hell 03:16

I had to learn how to fight for myself 03:19

And we both know all the truth I could tell 03:22

I'll just say this as I wish you farewell 03:26

I hope you're somewhere praying, praying 03:29

I hope your soul is changing, changing 03:36

I hope you find your peace 03:43

Falling on your knees Praying 03:47

Sometimes I pray for you at night 03:54

Someday maybe you'll see the light 04:01

Ohh some say in life you're gonna get what you give 04:07

But some things only God can forgive 04:14

I hope you're somewhere praying, praying 04:22

I hope your soul is changing, changing 04:28

I hope you find your peace 04:36

Falling on your knees Praying 04:39

[English]

Am I dead? Or is this one of those dreams?
Those horrible dreams
that seems like it last forever
If I am alive, why?
Why if there is a God a whatever, something, somewhere.
Why have I been abandoned by everyone and everything I've ever known
I've ever loved. Stranded.
What is the lesson? What is the point?
God give me a sign or I have to give up.
I can't do this anymore.
Please just let me die. Being alive hurts too much.
Well you almost had me fooled
Told me that I was nothing without you
Oh after everything you've done
I can thank you for how strong I have become
Cuz you brought the flames and you put me through hell
I had to learn how to fight for myself
And we both know all the truth I could tell
I'll just say this as I wish you farewell
I hope you're somewhere praying, praying
I hope your soul is changing, changing
I hope you find your peace
Falling on your knees Praying
I'm proud of who I am
No more monsters I can breathe again
And you said that I was done
Well you were wrong and now the best is yet to come
Cuz I can make it on my own
I don't need you, I've found a strength I've never known
I'll bring thunder I'll bring rain
When I'm finished they won't even know your name
You brought the flames and you put me through hell
I had to learn how to fight for myself
And we both know all the truth I could tell
I'll just say this as I wish you farewell
I hope you're somewhere praying, praying
I hope your soul is changing, changing
I hope you find your peace
Falling on your knees Praying
Sometimes I pray for you at night
Someday maybe you'll see the light
Ohh some say in life you're gonna get what you give
But some things only God can forgive
I hope you're somewhere praying, praying
I hope your soul is changing, changing
I hope you find your peace
Falling on your knees Praying
