The Story of Me
Rescuing Dreams: The Unveiling Tale of Longing and Destiny
Lyrics
Rescue me before my dreams have flown away
Asking for help before my hopes vanish completely
Rescue me, take me back with you again
Pleading to be taken back to a previous state
The lonely hours I wait for dawn's caress
Longing for the touch of daylight after a lonely night
I can't forget the silence of the loneliness
Remembering the deep silence of isolation
Destiny, I wrote the book about the game
Feeling like destiny is something I control
Destiny, now I've learned how to take the pain
Learning to endure pain as part of destiny
Try as I may I can't explain the way I'm feeling now
Unable to articulate current emotions
Try as I may I can't explain
Continuing difficulty in explaining feelings
And now I'm walking right back to you
Returning to someone after a journey or experience
And all along I never really knew
Realizing lack of understanding throughout the journey
That there was heartbreak ahead
Awareness of impending heartache
And everyone but I could see
Others could see the heartbreak, but I couldn't
That's the story of me
Summing up the personal experience
Don't look back to think about the things we did
Advising against dwelling on past actions
Don't look back to pretend that's how it might have been
Warning against imagining alternative scenarios
I'm walking homeward through the shadows of the night again
Returning home amidst darkness and uncertainty
So now the story can be told
Preparing to reveal the story
And now I'm walking right back to you
Repeating the return to someone
And all along I never really knew
Admitting a lack of prior awareness
That there was sorrow to come
Anticipating sadness that was unforeseen
And I thought there'd be ecstasy
Expecting happiness but encountering disappointment
That's the story of me
Summarizing personal experiences of joy and pain
And now I'm walking right back to you
Reiterating the return to someone
And all along I never really knew
Reiterating lack of prior understanding
That it's so easy to see that's how it's meant to be
Realization that the situation is now clear
And that's the story of me, story of me
Confirming the personal story
That's the story of me
Reaffirming the personal experience
