Take my hand
On this dead end road.
Because I've been told
We all need one to hold.
There maybe times
When you need to be alone,
But if you need a friend
Just pick up the phone.
I saw the look of spite.
That was on your face last night.
Right now I am kind of hurting.
From all the stress and strife.
But I am tired of shedding tears,
There isn't time to cry.
I'd sooner just let you
Carry on with your life.
Maybe this was a lesson to be learned...
A way for me to figure things out.
Well at least I know now
Excatly what you are about.
It really did hurt,
To see the look upon you face.
It burn into my skin, as well as my soul;
Just like acid rain.
I will always be standing
In the same spot that I am at this moment
So if you need someone to catch you when you fall
With you it is more than just enjoyment.
While so many that I have considered
Close to my heart.
Well, they are the ones who made it easy for me
To play a part.
Because the show must go on.
Even though my smile may be fading.
I just wanted to get to know you
But you feel like I am envading.
Trust that I understand
And that I do comprehend
But I see whats inside the head of yours...
Aren't you suppouse to be my friend???
Then why lie?
All I need is the truth.
But your scared I'll get hurt.
News flash I've been hurt before so you have no reason to refuse.
On one hand you smile
Well, it gives me chills of the good kind.
While your lies,
They are turning you into a person I despise.
Maybe when you see this
You will know it was ment for you.
I'm not ready to give up this fight
But to you it is already through.
I guess that is what hurts the most.
It hurts down deep in my soul.
No wonder day by day
This soul is growning cold.
It's like there is ice inside of me
Making me loes my way
But when I am with you
I feel okay, infact I feel great.
Untill the realization sets in
That I will never be
Excatly what you wanted
Well then I guess you didn't want me.
And who I am I cannot change...
I won't comprmise myself just to please
I finally am coming into my own.
I know what I believe, and what I'm ready to achieve.
Every single thing that has eluded me.
As the fogg lifts, and floats away
I see now from the start it was cursed
And that in the end,
I am better than you deserve.
