Quiet this night and open these eyes.
|
I find myself lost in the shuffle.
|
This breath of life is getting complicated, and my mind has shut down.
|
This rope's end is harder to hold.
|
I'm at the point of surrender, but I can't let go.
|
Lifting my hands used to be so simple, but I fight to give it all.
|
I can't fake it anymore.
|
Take this life and make it yours.
|
Bend this will until it breaks.
|
I am yours.
|
You can have me.
|
Take my heart and lift it up, and I will hold on to you.
|
I am yours.
|
You have me wanting and needing more, aching and longing to hold you.
|
It is becoming harder to know my own self.
|
I feel that from a distance, I am watching my life get turned upside down.
|
I have been so thirsty.
|
Why can't I notice me and stop lying to myself?
|
I asked for this portrait.
|
I pleaded for this, but now I bend under the load of responsibility.
|
Will it all fall by the wayside, and will I let it?
|
Will there be anything left to hold onto but me?
|
I need you more than I need myself.
|
I can't do this on my own.
