Here I am
Floating in a sea of possibilities
Of what could and couldn't be
Hiding in the shadows
Afraid of who I've been
And who I thought I always wanted to be
I am haunted
By a touch of...
Never thought it'd mean so much
Scared and lonely
And running from what can never be
What I always wanted to feel
And can't be mine....
Take me
Take me
Let my mind go
Far far away
Break me
make me
Forget all these iron ties that bind
And blind
There you are
Holding out your hand to me
And I go on disbelieving, disagreeing
And lying in my laughter, decieving
How do you stay standing
In your eyes I see so demanding
Or is your reality just a word?
I cannot see
Set me free
Author notes
I just sort of wrote this. Its lyrical, though I know off tempo.... I don't know if its done, or if it even makes sense.
