TELL ME

He’s crying out in pain from within and I can’t soothe him,

His insides are on fire and I can do nothing but watch him burn,

He’s lost but I cannot hold his hand and show him the way,

He needs somebody, how do I ask him if I could be the one?

What good is my love if I cannot just comfort him?

Hug him a little tighter, that’s the least I can do.

What good is my love if I can’t stay by his side?

Listen to him talk like most friends would.

I love you my dear,

Just tell me what’s wrong,

I might not be able to solve the problem,

But I’ll stand by you all along.

I love you my dear,

Just share with me your plight.

I can’t bear to see you in pain,

And the way with them you put up a fight.

Trapped in a Box

I am locked in a box,
I want to get out,
But I don’t have the key,
Someone please find it for me.

The box is filled with darkness,
I feel nothing but emptiness.
I feel disconnected from my life,
Someone please cut it open with a knife.

If I could get out of here,
I’d go everywhere prancing like a deer,
I’d drink from a cool river,
Jump in and watch the water glimmer.

If I could get out of here,
I’d fly like a bird in fifth gear.
I’d take the highest flights,
And dance in the heavenly lights.

If I could get out of here,
I’d drive away my irrational fears.
Dance the crazy freak out,
Just want to stretch, want to get out.

But I’m trapped in this box,
And I cant seem to get out.
Maybe I’ve lost the key,
Cannot rely on anyone for finding it for me.
