This song is dedicated to anyone who struggles with depression or feels ostracized from other people. You are not alone and there is hope in Jesus Christ.

lyrics

(Verse 1)
So long ago I couldn't tell you the date,
way too many details have faded away,
and as time runs, never resting, turning the pages,
in the blink of an eye the sun rises on a new day.
Trying to paint the picture of the path I've
walked is like a prison I can't escape.
There's a deep need seeded inside of every
man to be understood but some things are
hard to explain.
I don't really know when things changed,
suddenly it seemed like nothing was the same,
too caught up in trying to maintain,
I forgot to keep the main thing the main thing.
and I lost myself, wandering through a wilderness
guided by the pain I felt, and
somewhere along the way I forgot to call on
the name of the only one who could really help.

(Chorus)
It feels like no one knows me. Sometimes it gets so lonely,
but I just keep on hoping to find a way to keep going.
I pray for the words to say to express all the hurt and pain
Lord knows I try but there are days I just want to fly away.

(Verse 2)
Missed opportunities I wish I hadn't let slip through
my grasp, faint whispers passing like wind from the
mountain tips that cascades down the cliffs
until it hits the plateaus and drifts with rivers
into the valleys where it sifts through grass
blades making sound waves
Its intricate but now it isn't, How does
time sprint so fast? Wish I could move it
backwards...
but regret is the debt acquired by every chance
we don't take, even if it means mistakes,
we need to face up to things that we can't change.
knowing that things tend to never really stay
the same.
but it gets to me. sometimes I sit with the
moon glimmering over my shoulder while I
continue to dwell on the past as if it lives
with me unable to completely break free
from my history.

(Chorus)
It feels like no one knows me. Sometimes it gets so lonely,
but I just keep on hoping to find a way to keep going.
I pray for the words to say to express all the hurt and pain
Lord knows I try but there are days I just want to fly away.

(Verse 3)
How can we go on? Why would we go on?
Is there anything after we're gone?
There is one who can show us peace
that surpasses all understanding we
could imagine, see, begin to fathom
He created man, breathed life into Adam, Eve
and had a plan to free all of those who seek
Him to redeem the faithful for eternity.
Yet these fools reject Him, mock Him,
and disrespect Him.
One nation under God has now left Him.
This is not my home. In an exile
wandering alone through a land I don't know.
I can't escape for now no matter how
my fate is destined to end on my final day
held down by the full weight of gravity or
is it depravity desperately grabbing my legs.

(Chorus)
It feels like no one knows me. Sometimes it gets so lonely,
but I just keep on hoping to find a way to keep going.
I pray for the words to say to express all the hurt and pain.
Lord knows I try but there are days I just want to fly away.
