I Rest Here

Without a fear, I rest here Without shedding a tear, I joyfully sing in cheer Please be here To set me free from fear I tried not to cry, but to fly My unspoken, broken pride Said otherwise, can’t deny There’s no where left to hide To set me free from fear, Please stay near I rest here in tears In a dreamscape These Nightmares — lowering my highs No where to escape My kind is dying My mind is fading Sick of truly trying To love away the hating I rest here in fears I’m in reality’s demise There are no cures And don’t seek me — I’m not that wise I remember how to feel I fell deep down, Found it hard to heal Bit, I still sing my heart out Without a hopeless doubt Please be here To set me free from fear I tried not to cry, but to fly My unspoken, broken pride Said otherwise, can’t deny There’s no where left to hide To set me free from fear, Please stay near I rest here in tears In a dreamscape These Nightmares — lowering my highs No where to escape My kind is dying My mind is fading Sick of truly trying To love away the hating I rest here in fears I’m in reality’s demise There are no cures And don’t seek me — I’m not that wise I have fallen apart To understand from the start That I can soar Even without your inner core Without your strength galore I have fallen short Help me, hope for a good report So, I can be set free From fear that draws near Just let me be and flee In lands of liberty — I understand, dear And don’t seek me - I’m not wise Your eyes shine bright with no lies I rest here, I rest here, oh I rest here in tears, tears, tears With a fearless frame of mind until a drop of hope appears
