No Name

I am the one who writes songs in your head
The one who dances with you until the light shines
I am the tune that never goes away
The drums that never end


I am the one who holds you as the darkness comes
The one who shelters you in your bravest hour
I am the shadow who holds the brightest sun
I hold it tightly in my hands


I am the words that spill from your lips
The poison running through your veins
All that is good and all that is bad
I am all of these things and I am nothing


I have seen the dawn of creation
I am forever
I have seen the world ending, the universe crashing down
And I must remain silent


All have seen me before, but to you
I am nothing, I am no one
I am only a life that you will only see once
And perhaps, you are right


I am the one with no song in my head
I am the one who has no bravest hour
I am the one who speaks no words
And I am the one who has no name
