Quotable lyrics off ‘Huru’ record.
Stories never told, Such a long way home
Time has come and gone,Heavy on my soul
Took out all the light,Now i am alone
Life left me will i see the dawn?
Wrecking balls in my head
Cant tell nobody
They say that time will heal me
So i wait for time to find me, time to find me
Do they really know?
How it feels inside?
Do they really know?
What is left inside?
