In All That Time Lyrics

In a silent world
I had lived without sight or sound
In all that timeYou know I felt that shame
But I put the blame on everyone around
In all that timeAnd I had lost all of my power, my faith and my belief
In all that time
And I had lost those wings that carried me
To any place I longed to be
In all that timeI should have
Let you know one thing
That what you saw
Was just my shadowA picture black and white
The colours shining bright
Were washed away
In that rain still falling down on meWas all that a curse
Whatever promised to get better
Turned out worse
In all that timeI lived under that spell

I was caught in my own private hell
In all that timeAnd I had lost all of my power, my faith and my belief
In all that time
And I had lost all hope
I was clutching at a burning rope
Helpless like a child
In all that timeI should have
Let you know one thing
That what you saw
Was just my shadowA skeleton disguised
A soul devitalised
A body caught in automationI lay awake that night
Wishing you could hold me tight
I could as well have been dead
I never dared to say the words I should have said
I should have known
That it won't get better just by waiting
Or telling myself
That I would try to be a better man
And I should have known
That I ran away too often
Instead of moving onIn a silent world
I had lived without sight or sound
In all that timeYou felt my distress
And I can only guess
What you've been through
In all that timeI should have let you know
That I had lost all of my power, my faith and my belief
In all that time
And I had lost all hope
I was clutching at a burning rope
Helpless like a child
In all that timeI should have
Let you know one thing
That what you saw
Was just my shadowA skeleton disguised
A soul devitalised
A body caught in automationI lay awake that night
Wishing you could hold me tight
I could as well have been dead
I never dared to say the words I should have said
I should have known
That it won't get better just by waiting
Or telling myself
That I would try to be a better man
And I should have known
That I ran away too often
Instead of moving on
Instead of moving on
