Walking into the Darkness
Getting ready to leave everything I’ve ever known
Getting ready to start a new life out on my own
Wondering if I’ll ever see my dreams
Realizing that this is harder than it seems
I’m walking into the darkness
Everything before me is in unknown
I’m entering the shadows
Leaving all the seeds I have sown
Making plans for a new beginning
My head, full of doubt, is spinning
Looking back on all the things I’ve done
All the battles I’ve lost and all the ones I’ve won
I’m walking into the darkness
Everything before me is in unknown
I’m entering the shadows
Leaving all the seeds I have sown
I’m scared now, more than I ever thought I’d be
What will happen in future, I know I cannot see
Not being sure of myself, and of my ability
I am daunted by a sense of futility
I’m walking into the darkness
Everything before me is in unknown
I’m entering the shadows
Leaving all the seeds I have sown
