歌詞

Footsteps follow me with no sound

A shadow tracing all my doubts

Unseen, they trail behind my back

And fear begins to swallow me

I cannot turn, I cannot breathe

I’m frozen where the darkness meets me

Those quiet steps creeping from behind

I stand there still

Eyes tightly closed

The darkness in my heart

Can’t even reach the ground I walk

Countless lights go rushing past

Like stars across an endless sky

I break apart and finally scream

“I can’t take this—go on without me!”

But the footsteps stop and softly say

“That’s impossible… because I am—

I am you

I am the trace you left behind.”

From those silent steps that followed me

I took a piece of hope and dreams

And in return I gave away

My anger and my grief

Then lifting up my head at last

I slowly start to walk again

No more trembling in the dark

No more standing still in fear

The tears that quietly fell that day

Were signs of love you tried to save

A gentle drop from your own heart

Wishing to hold the world with grace

Until the day the winds will blow

Warm and soft

Across your soul…
