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
