I'm Still Searching

All my life been searching
For the thing that I've been longing for
Looking for something much more
Meanwhile I'm still hurting

Through it all I still can't hide
From this tacit soul inside
Impossible in Earth and sky
And from the past I'm learning

To take this life by its few steps
To prevent anymore regrets
Things I had that suddenly left
For them I'm still yerning

To set free a prisoner of youth
Who only wishes to know the truth
To be without it is no use
So for it I'm sill searching
