The Passerby
by Awaken

Album: Broken Circle

There are so many thoughts still left
to share with you
Disappearing hope is hard to bear
But something holds me back
from pouring out to you
that could lead an attack that could
change the world for you
And another day has gone by
that I haven't taken the time
to send my arms out to save a life
Why do I hide these feelings inside
and let myself fall behind
to miss the reach of the passerby
There's still so much I'd like to say to you
but you pass by without a second glance
So many times I want to open up to you
but then I throw away another chance
to say anything
And another day has gone by
that I haven't taken the time
to send my arms out to save a life
Why do I hide these feelings inside
and let myself fall behind
to miss the reach of the passerby
Could it be a reign of doubt
that breaks the arms of our hearts
to keep us from reaching out
to those who need us most?
Or could the devil, himself
have a grip on our tongues
to keep our voices quiet
from spilling out what we feel?
And another day has gone by
that I haven't taken the time
to send my arms out to save a life
Why do I hide these feelings inside
and let myself fall behind
to miss the reach of the passerby
