When I was crumbling, when I was about to fall
You came and steered me with your grace
You overpowered darkness, you are my sunlight
And now, all I can see is your face
When all of my dreams failed, and my fingers turned blue
You held my hand and gave me a taste of life
I realized I am strong, but only on the surface, not all through
But, fortunately for me, you untangled my inner strife
And then, out of nowhere, the verses started rhyming
And just when I thought I would sink
You came and became my silver lining
Don’t leave me alone, with all my demons within
You didn’t let my emptiness devour me
Now break the shackles and set me free
You are my bearing
You instill into me, a zest to survive
When I walk towards you, right through the valley of death
I don’t know why, but I tend to feel alive
When all the lights fade out
And indomitable silence begins to scream and shout
I feel the raindrops falling on me
After a prolonged drought
It was here that I saw the stars shining
And just when I thought I would sink
You came and became my silver lining
You’ve driven me out of the ruins
From the chambers where love was annihilated
And where happiness was destroyed
Where lives were stranded between vast voids
Right at the stroke of dusk
You came and became my guiding light
I closed my eyes and counted up till three
And you dismantled the walls that were confining me
The easiest part was falling for you
The toughest part is being away
I have told you everything
But I still have countless words to say
I’m chocking on unspoken words
There are beginning to descend
But you are my silver lining
My best friend
When you are there with me
Melodies get unchained and the stars start shining
Because you happen to be with me in health and in sickness
My best friend, my silver lining
