MARGARET:
I can’t recall my family
A single moment, word, or face
They’d given me a fortune
Then disappeared without a trace
I built my life in New York City
But I couldn’t make it feel like home
Like pictures drawn from memory
All details fade and stay unknown
I lived within a light
That dimmed years ago
What people saw in me
Had been left to grow
In the shadows
In the shadows
I studied every science
That dealt with things once undefined
Searching everywhere for answers
Hoping one of them was mine
I found peace in a moonbeam
The Sun began to rise
I trusted total strangers
Our friendship started out with lies
Yet, within me there’s a light
I can finally show
What they see in me
Has just begun to glow
In the shadows
In the shadows
Now, they promise adventures
Beyond the books that filled up my shelf
Forgiveness is a journey, too
But I know I can trust myself
Because I believe in mystery
The feeling when I radiate
The darkness of my past
My future will illuminate
Yes, within me there’s a light
I’ve just begun to know
So ring the bells
Strike the match
I’m on the surface
And it needs a scratch
Here I come at last
Out of the shadows
