Lifting Hand:
Empty promises, hollow dreams,
blackend lonliness, voiceless screams.
My mind cycles through these saddend thoughts,
but all I want, is one true heart.
I can still taste it, faint, but sweet,
it's been too long, how much more can I take.
Alone in the dark, light takes wing,
the tears in my eyes, bear mark to my pain.
I know I can still love, I know I'm wiiling to try,
but no-one takes notice, just another knot in the pine.
I'm not a loser, just very quiet and shy,
I look at things differently, perspectives mutiplied.
I see all of you, thinking your better than me,
maybe thats not a pedistal your on, maybe it's really a cage.
For not all paths lead to where we want to go,
and sometimes it takes a different person, to show us the way home.
So wake up now!!! stop watching the tube,
you can't expect everyone, to be like Hollywood.
All I want, is a chance to be with you,
so give me your hand, and lift me out of my gloom.
