Wrung Dry

So look in the mirror
But look past the man in the glass
Because what lies beneath
Is the true story many fail to see
Unfortunately my uncovered soul
Revealed wants nothing more
Than to wish a way the jealousy and worry
Of having my other half stolen from me
If I could only switch my feelings to their opposite
This pain would fade and be demolished
It would give us both the chance to heal
From the wounds we've made each other feel
Bandage the hate and the loneliness
To bind ourselves back to wholeness
We must prevail; we must survive
To save each other from a destructive life
Oh I wish for the day when everyone will be gone
With just you and me finally becoming one
One day my dreams will come true
When my heart will belong to you
We will pick each other up when we fall
To strengthen our love overall
This is the life I've been wishing and wanting
It is near, I feel our destiny coming
So where is the light?
I can't find hope in this darkened time
Maybe it's hidden in the back of the line
Beyond me and what's mine
I am wrung dry like a raggedy used rag,
Thrown to the bottom of the basket forgotten;
Until you dig through the rest of the dirt to find it again.
