If You Knew

if you knew you would uproot this pain that has me drowning in molten anger and fear You would free me of my sins as well as my creators' only if you knew Then maybe you would hear me when i cry for help and you would wipe the warm tears that rolls down my flaky face if only YOU knew... maybe you would let me be none other than me that very little soul that has been locked in a dark soap box maybe you would give me air and usher me into tommorow then we would see us, me and you up against all odds maybe you would know that i want you to hold my hand when walking down that dark path That i want so bad for you to tell me 'its ok' even when down the core it hurts so bad that i want to surrender But only because you make it seem ok i can see through it If only you would know how loud i shout for you to look inside me Then you would turn my frown upside down maybe then you would give me that touch of love i sing about to God everyday maybe, you would hear my silent prayers, that you save me from my self If only you knew... i would have been released from behind the bars of steel that my fear tightened around me my wish is that you know that i need you more than i could admit even with a gun held to my head because i'm scared of being vulnerable... So now m telling you i need you find your way to me and cleanse me...
