Take My Hand
The clock on the wall flashes 4 AM and we’re still awake
We can’t even remember who made this latest mistake
Is it just me or is something irrevocably broken
It maybe wiser for us to say our final goodbyes
But deep down inside of me I hope to see the sun rise
Is it too late, the past can not be undone
‘Cause maybe all that I am feeling is only wishful
But somehow I know what we have is special
We’ve been together since I was a girl
It’s all I can do to just breathe
Life is not what I had planned
Please take my hand
How I long for you to give a passionate kiss
There are days when I feel I don’t even exist
But some how the distance is closed when you are so near
Shaking as we lay down, it’s been more than awhile
“It’s been so long since I’ve seen your beautiful smile”
Melting into each other, both willing to submit
‘Cause maybe all that you are feeling isn’t just wishful
But somehow you know what we have is special
We’ve been together since I was a girl
It’s all you can do to just breathe
Life is not what you planned
Just take my hand
Reconnection is always this simple
Now totally forgotten what we had argued about
We both know we will make the same mistakes again
But I know you will still be around
6 AM on the wall, right where we belong
Laying beside you, I am contented to be
Another long night we’ve made it through
There is no reason to speak our feelings out loud
We know what each other’s thinking without making a sound
And as the sun rises, our love begins anew
Cause maybe all that we are feeling isn’t just wishful
And somehow we know what we have is special
We’ve been together since I was a girl
It’s all I can do to just breathe
Life is not what we planned
We find sleep hand in hand
Madness
Look into the minds of men
Fear bequeathed unto them
Sinister spiral in a fight to be sane
To late to realize the effort given in vain
No light at the end of this darkest night
Save but one with meaningful insight
Let die the desire to be one and the same
You’ve only yourself to reclaim
Give over the need to be all a like
Feel energized by the lightning strike
Knowledge freely give is yours to gain
If one is willing to suffer a little pain
Shuck the shackles of body and mind
The depths of the soul can be redefined
Identity denied is true insanity suffered
With one question left to be answered
Is the cost greater to remain sane and faceless
Or to be free and thought to suffer great madness
