Songs of Separation

There is a time in my memory
when I was a part of a family
I had a place that I called home
But now I feel so disconnected
This is not what I expected
When I set out on my own

I know that someone could save me
But someday is too late

Cuz I know, If I make it, I won't make it on my own
Yeah I know, though it's taken me so long to undergo
And these songs of separation are all I have to hold

I've been stubborn, independent
I've been selfish, I've resented
Anyone who made me try to change my ways
But now I need someone to guide me
Someone not afraid to lie
And say tonight, everything is gonna be ok

And I know that you'll come
But someday it will be too late

Cuz I know, If I make it, I won't make it on my own
Yeah I know, though it's taken me so long to undergo
And these songs of separation are all I have to hold

Now I'm anxious
As these thoughts inside my head begin to swirl
About a history
That's only just beginning to unfurl
And I long for adaptation to an unfamiliar world

Cuz I know, if I make it, I won't make it if I fall
And I know, it keeps taking til there's nothing left
Nothing but these songs of separation
Are pounding down these walls
