Pleading
wanting...wishing...
hoping...
dreaming...
where is that place...
you know the one I mean...
the one that keeps me safe...
from all that I've seen...
surely you must know...
tell me, please, dear reader...
because you have that glow...
I'll follow if you're the leader...
show me what you will...
tell me how to feel...
put me up on your windowsill...
or before you make me kneel...
make me understand...
just what this life is for...
show me just where to stand...
please, I do implore...
I am still lost here...
looking for the right trail...
but I can't see past my fear...
it always happens without fail...
stop it all for me...
make the spinning end...
before I get dizzy...
and see that again I've sinned...
here's my hand...
take it please...
lead me from this land...
to feel that cool breeze...
I know it exists...
I hear of it all around...
while my soul twists...
waiting to be unbound...
I'm begging before you...
groveling at your feet...
make it true...
make my life complete...
needing...
begging...
groveling...
pleading...
