I’d Sing
I see the path of destruction right there before me
The cobblestoned road that once before tore me
The way it implores me can be so convincing
When nothing is right and my everything’s missing
When I’m shaking and twitching and hurting and crying
The presence of shadows can be so underlying
When this soul’s pulse is dying, it’s easily beaten
Just giving up hope with no need for a reason
I’ll just scream to release it, I’ll fade out to quiet
This emptiness eats me. I’m too weak to fight it
I’m too weak to hide it. My eyes turn to lifeless
There’s one thing I need, the one thing to right this
I need her to be here, I need her here with me
I want her to smile and I’d ask her to kiss me
I’d beg her to lift me and tell me it’s better
And tell me today that we’re back here together
And I’d hold her forever just the way that I promised
My heart’s full of love that’s impatient, yet honest
I’d sing her a sonnet though I’d miss every note
I wouldn’t care, I’d just sing of this hope
And I’d sing what I know, how I love her completely
I’d sing it off key, but I’d sing it so sweetly
I’d give it my all, I would give it my best
I just want her here with me, her head on my chest
