I can’t feel a thing
I miss that zing
I feel numb
I can’t say those words
It hurts my throat
To open up
To speak those words
To bring my heart out
To tell you all about
Keep it out there for you
For you to feel it
For you to steal it
So I slide that feeling
Deep down my lungs
Where it’s not healing
Where no one’s seeing
With the realization
I am changing…
Only if I could change the world that surrounds me
Only if I could see things the way you see
Only if I had the strength to overcome you
Only if I could bear the pain that always grew
Only if I could show you the mask I have been wearing
Only I could unload the weight I have been bearing
Only if I could make that one moment go away
Only if I could take back the words I shouldn’t say
Only if I could bring back the days that made you smile
Only if I could make you once again walk that mile
Only if I could stop the clock from ticking
Only if I could hold this wound from sticking
Only if I could withstand the storm within
Only if I could forget with no regrets and once again begin…
Miles to go Before I sleep
