lyrics

I walked up to the top of the hill
Knowing that nothing was there
Alone and free just my mother and me
She held me up to the air
I watched streams of the skies energy
Drawing shapes out into space
Even the moon not so far removed
Everything fell into place
It was then that I discovered
Through all of the mystery
That there'd always be an emptiness
That could only be filled by me
And I swear that I was flying
I remember I was so happy
My call was heard and all was replying
Saying there was something in me
I walked up to the top of the hill
The sky was purple and red
The seasons of green
Quickly changing their scene
To gold then barren and dead
And once again I'd forgotten why
I returned to this place
In the mirror as my features changed
Somehow the seasons kept pace
It was then that I remembered
Through all the insanity
That there always was an emptiness
That could only be filled by me
I couldn’t tell I was crying
I remember I was so happy
For so long I'd been trying
To find if there was something in me
