If Only You Knew

The greatest thing you'll ever learn, is just to love and be loved in return.- Nat King Cole

On the edge of the darkness
Of your sickest dreams
And they scream in my ears
WHAT IS IT THAT YOU SEEK?
As I stand in wonder
Shock and disbelief.
My only answer:
WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?
I can hear the whispers
As I can feel your fear
Does it bother you I notice?
Everything that you hold dear
Do you think I asked for this?
To feel it all so clear
As if I could become you
Like I would even dare
You wouldn't take that chance
You couldn't face the facts
The honesty so pure
Like a mirror to the past.
Denial is your own
The weakness of your soul
Tormented the unknown
WHY? I SHOULDN'T KNOW.
But you claim I can trust you
When you can't even trust
Defending your guilty conscience
That old machine that rusts.
I wont point a finger
No casting shadow of blame
If I have to kill you
I'll swim through oceans of flame
But I wont stoop so low
You can dig your own grave
I swear by my soul
That all can still be saved
Don't mind what you cant see?
Waiting, Starring face up, catch a star.
Thinking, Too much, Hope it scars.
Breathing? Who knows? I can't tell.
Living? A blessing. Embrace this hell.
Love's the only reason. Keep it real.
Nothing else is necessary.
Every other thing you feel.
Just a waste of paradise.
The light of life, it stands in wait
Longing to reveal, longing to escape this hate.
