The Quiet Rescue
Carry on in your ways.
You will never change me.
Keep your eyes forever closed.
Only your heart can make you see.
Come the tangles through your thoughts.
I'll provide the brush.
Ripping at your mind
Never helped you much.
Give someone your hand,
Rough as it may be,
And hold on to all you get,
Because that gift may make you free.
Don't throw it all away.
It's easier to forgive.
Cry tears for all your pain,
And hope will make you live.
You've locked your door of life
And thrown away the key.
Your soul has shriveled up.
Quiet may you be.
