Suddenly I was, but could not see
Where am I now? what could I be?
Can’t break through the darkness, as hard as I fight
I’m kicking and pushing and reaching for light
Tighter and tighter this world is closing in
I thought this was the beginning, but it must be the end
Twisting and turning, I’ve found a way out
This world is big, cold, I let out a shout
Opened my eyes, now I can see
I’m looking at you, you’re looking at me
Crawling then walking, now learning the way
From my interpretations of all that you say

This world is shrinking, years pass by years
My family has died, and left me in tears
Old and weak now, I let out a sigh
I lay down to sleep, it’s my turn to die
From darkness to light to darkness again
Now it’s all over, this is the end
What’s this? a tunnel? at the end a light?
Walking then running, I’ve regained my sight
Through all that you learn, and all that you do
Remember this message I have for you
When you lose somebody, there’s no reason to mourn
They did not die, they've just been born
