about
This song was written a number of years ago, from a place of vulnerability and dispair. The protagonist of the song feels like they are succumbing to their emotions, until a lover pulls them from the pit he finds himself in.
lyrics
Lyrics:
I'm pensive, considerate, emotionally illiterate.
And if tried and tested methods leave me feeling somewhat tempted,
I go out, and I go inside,
To a place, a sacred space, that tears me apart from the inside.
So I ask you please, will you hold my hand.
Overcome, I become undone,
And I'm plagued, as I masquerade,
As the thief.
Hot air upon his breath,
And eyes as black as blood and death.
His tounge did squirm and his words did burn,
Entangled in a world of hurt.
And his look did bore a nasty gaze,
He'd never show he's afraid.
Now love ones lost, the smoke did drop,
As he turned away.
Now the moon looked celestial, and totally impeccable.
My mind is slowly mangled, then entanlged by the thought of what's to come.
So I ask you please, wiill you hold my hand.
Overcome, I become undone,
And i'm plagued, as I masquerade.
Now my hands are cold and my body is numb,
And I ask for strength to overcome,
This state of rage, my heart turns black,
The tangled, broken, beaten and smashed.
And I start to feel the evening pass,
Permitted by the time at last,
Now loved ones lost, the smoke did drop.
And there through the debri left behind,
In the body of my mind,
Is a face of love and care, decorum and kind.
Her hand is warm as she takes mine,
her lips they are soft, and her smile is wide,
And I feel the pain before drift away,
to that hellish hole once more.
And i'll take care,
To keep you close,
For you'll be there,
When I need it most.
