Or break away from the scenes
Alternatively, I can break away from the established scenarios.
I peek through
I cautiously observe my surroundings.
I see things

Just as they are
These observations reveal only a potential, not the full reality.
A shell of what could be
What exists is merely a fragment of what could be.
I've fixed my eyes on a phase
My attention is fixed on a particular stage or state.
And I'm in need of a change
I feel a strong desire for a fundamental change.
To renew myself

Hoping it will fill all my needs

I can endure being without certain things.
Find me a way to be fully alive
Seeking a way to experience life to the fullest.
I peek through

My attention is still fixed on a particular stage or state.
And I'm in need of a change
The desire for a fundamental change persists.

Where do you wanna hide
Where do I choose to hide?
Step out of the shade
It's time to step out of the shadows.
Where do you wanna hide

Step out of the shade
It's time to step out of the shadows once more.
