Only the Few

I have been hiding 
Waiting and deciding on my next move
Without lying I’ll tell you 
I have been crying 
And dying a little on the inside too 
Oh what to do, nothing but think about you

Always colliding soon the pain may begin subsiding
When I’m finished hiding 
And disguising the demons of my past and new
Can only hope this will not last

Faster falling, always calling 
Upon you, God please give a clue
What should I pursue 
Oh what to do, now just one of the few

Now never ending always bending 
Sending a cry out, hope impending 
Of fending off these demons of new
Oh what to do, without you

Now diminished, hopes are finished
Without out lying I’ll tell you
I have been crying 
And dying a little on the inside too
Oh what to do
When you realize you’re not just the few
You’re just you

I won’t be hiding this pain un-subsiding
Just because its felt by only the few
Even if that means only me and you
