Brave Me With Your Glow

Hear me as I echo your name on the highest mountain top It took me a million miles to reach there, But my youthful, torn-up heart never took a stop…dying like a desert crop I look at your universe eyes as they stare Into my own… I’m all alone… I’m an unanswered phone… I need God to be my backbone You are clearly on your own I sit here alone Into the unknown I matter in God’s eyes of empathetic bravery I shatter away the pain inside and set my soul free Save me, for I’m spiralling in the deep, shadowy abyss Brave my spirits of frightfulness… Dismiss my distress more or less… You flatter me with words of wisdom and understanding, left praying You scatter away the pins and needles in my skin; stood there decaying Courage and liberty is my solace melody Of taking flight with so much splendid serenity Brave my spirits with joyous glows I will fight for the truth as it grows So, will you shelter me with highs and lows? Listen to the glistening auras of my heart pounding in my chest It shook me to the deepest core That my meandering, messed-up mind is what you detest at your very best — It buried in me scars that I bear Into my own… I’m all alone… I’m an unanswered phone… I need God to be my backbone You are clearly on your own I sit here alone Into the unknown I matter in God’s eyes of empathetic bravery I shatter away the pain inside and set my soul free Save me, for I’m spiralling in the deep, shadowy abyss Brave my spirits of frightfulness… Dismiss my distress more or less… You flatter me with words of wisdom and understanding, left praying You scatter away the pins and needles in my skin; stood there decaying Courage and liberty is my solace melody Of taking flight with so much splendid serenity Brave my spirits with joyous glows I will fight for the truth as it grows So, will you shelter me with highs and lows? If I were next to you in the waves of the breeze, My whole body would feel entirely free If you lay upon my heart and be close to mine at ease, My soul, heart and mind will feel ecstasy Will you save me from captivity? I have lost my head down below in the undertoe Will you cradle me close, baby? I have found myself, longing for you and your glow Into my own… I’m all alone… I’m an unanswered phone… I need God to be my backbone You are clearly on your own I sit here alone Into the unknown I matter in God’s eyes of empathetic bravery I shatter away the pain inside and set my soul free Save me, for I’m spiralling in the deep, shadowy abyss Brave my spirits of frightfulness… Dismiss my distress more or less… You flatter me with words of wisdom and understanding, left praying You scatter away the pins and needles in my skin; stood there decaying Courage and liberty is my solace melody Of taking flight with so much splendid serenity Brave my spirits with joyous glows I will fight for the truth as it grows So, will you shelter me with highs and lows? I will fight for your touch somehow Miss you very much so, hope you know I heard you had a cold heart now… So, I go and seek another rainbow

J.W, I love "I’m an unanswered phone". Sometimes the best we can do just be there for the people we care about.
