look at me, I am the crippled now
|
could you ever hold me again?
|
Did you ever look and see what I was
|
Ever was I known when I was true?
|
And if this is all I am
|
Then peace becomes my rotten soul
|
|
They split themselves apart
|
And chase away those adored
|
they leave behind the binding hope
|
they chose to fight, in fear of this
|
I hear a million cries
|
pleas: only _to be heard_
|
I see a million smiles
|
pasted on faces of pain
|
|
they are scaling worlds
|
oblivious to their own
|
all for fear of being hurt
|
all for fear of being known
|
|
all on their own
|
never asking on
|
they fall
|
martyrs for lies
|
|
forget: your prejudice
|
embrace: me just once
|
set aside the horrid smiles
|
fall with me to know this vision
|
the lights blur and become as one
|
none are left to fend or restore
|
and time no longer forces fear
|
for we know now what we share
|
forget, embrace, the time will come
|
