In My Dreams
Posted on | January 22, 2007 | No Comments
if you could just look down upon my face
and see the world through my eyes
if you could just use your grace
would you see oh so many lies
as I look up into the sky
I hope with eyes closed and all my might
that you would see my shadow of doubt
that you will see the place i go and cry
and stop me from living in this plight
my lungs fill as i scream and shout
where all my dreams fall
and lay at your feet
if you stepped into my place
could you please just look at my soul
and if you could just lend me your space
would you please just see me as whole
i would walk the way of right
and my shadow will not follow
my eyes will finally have the sight
to stand up and hold this fight
what would happen to me
if i were to just let go for awhile
would i truly and finally see
what must become of only me
who is this man who hides in the dark
i do not want live so barren and stark
oh help me crumble down so many walls
no longer can i stumble through these shallow halls
in my dreams i am grasping ever so tightly
into the light and begging for a chance
i am holding my breath and stepping ever so lightly
just so you will join me in this our final dance…
