It's about a burning desire to do something to prove yourself to others.
Pushing pushing to do what's right
I yearn to see the blinding light
Everyone blocks me
From angel dust so,
What to do, I don't know

The yearning I feel
From head to toe
Can not describe
Friend or foe

You know what I want
Can't get it today
I feel like I'm afraid
to face the truth and jump ahead
To something that could make my day

I love you, I crave you, I need you today
That feeling of happiness
Is fading away
The center of wisdom, Shell of divorce
I didn't understand your inner force

Why take the chance
Flush my dream
When the force is too strong
Pushes me downstream

that feeling of flight
That sweat in the night
The addiction is there
Am afraid to fight

What is life without you?
What could I do?
I need to face facts
And kiss you adieu

The light is brighter
Less confusion ahead
I know what to do now
with a clear head
One day at a time
I can set myself free
I hope in the future
I can just be me
