It's been a long dark road but I remember when it meant the world to me,
It's been a long dark day and a cold black night and it still gets hard to see
'Cause they don't know me and they never will
It's been a long dark road I still remember why it took so much out of me,
It's a shallow pond we're swimming in and it makes it hard to breath,
'Cause they don't know me and they never will
No they don't know why or how it feels to live
It's been a long dark road and I remember skies that weren't so a hard to see,
It's been a long dark day and I remember nights that made me, me
'Cause they don't know me and they never will
And they don't know why or how it feels to live
