Third

tempted in our minds
tormented inside lie
wounded and afraid
inside my head
falling through changes

//

empty in our hearts
crying out in silence
wandered out of reach
too far to speak
drifting unable

//

and if I should fall, would you hold me?
would you pass me by?
for you know I'd ask you for nothing
just to wait for a while

//

so confused
my thoughts are taking over
unwanted, arising space me instead
won't let go

//

I'd like to laugh at what you said
but I just can't find a smile
I wonder why you can't
I struggle with myself
hoping I might change a little
hoping that I might be someone I want to be

//

looking out, I want to know someone might care
looking out, I want a reason to be there

//

looking out, I want to know some way might clear
looking out, I want a reason to repair

//

I can't see nothing good
and nothing is so bad
I never had a chance
to explain exactly what I meant

//

through the glory of life
I will scatter on the floor
disappointed and sore
and in my thoughts I have bled
for the riddles I've been fed
another lie moves over

//

the taste of life
I can't describe
it's choking on my mind
reaching out I can't believe
that faith it can't decide

//

oh can't you see
holding on to my heart
I bleed the taste of life

//

the pace, the time
I can't survive
it's grinding down the view
breaking out which way to choose
a choice I can't renew

//

I'm drifting in deep waters
alone with my self doubting again
I try not to struggle this time
for I will weather the storm
I gotta remember (gotta remember)
don't fight it (don't fight it)
even if I (even if I)
don't like it (don't like it)
somehow turn me around (somehow turn me around)
no matter how far I drift
deep waters (deep waters)
won't scare me tonight

//

if I remember the night that we met
tasted a wine that I'll never forget
opened the doorway and saw through the light
motions of movement and I felt delight

//

small, tasteless, and forgot
hoping to see, blinded like me
you tried to understand, but you're just a man
open to scorn just like me

//

I can't deny what I've become
I'm just emotionally undone
I can't deny, I can't be someone else
when I have tried to find the words
to describe this sense absurd
try to resist my thoughts, but I can't lie

//

I can't divide or hide from me
I don't know who I'm meant to be
I guess it's just the person that I am
often I've dreamt that I don't wade
enjoy the gift of my mistake
but yet again, I'm wrong and I confess

//

better if I could find
the words to say
whenever I take a choice
it turns away

//

I'm worn, tired of my mind
I'm worn out, thinking of why
I'm always so unsure

//

I battle my thoughts
I find I can't explain
I've travelled so far
but somehow feel the same

//

I am one
damned
one
where do I go?
