Planning To Get Out

Will away the nightmares
Fend off all the pain
Show me someone really cares
And my world isn't constant rain

Hold me close and love me
Be my shelter from the cold
Give me new eyes to see
Help me learn to be bold

Open up this prison gate
Guide me through the maze
Help me wipe my messy slate
Clear my life of haze

Scare away these fears
I regret I ever fell
But I will wipe away these dwelling tears
And get away from this Hell
