I have a personality
That I am proud of
  I have evolved from the dirt I once was
I can laugh, and I've learned how to smile
I feel human again
Secure - Nowhere near my end

I can hold a conversation
I can mingle with my friend's friends
That's all I've learned so far,
But it's nowhere near the end.

I've grown confident of my conscience
I trust myself and my decisions
My heart is not too heavy
To hold my head up as I walk, and look happy.
I'm still a dirtbag, but I'm not a demon
I just want your affection
            Not your prescription
I just want you voice
           Heading in my direction
I'll listen - study your inflection
Your voice, it will surround me
Constrict conflicting worries

Lay yourself out on my bed
I want to know what's in your head
A distraction from what's in mine
Let it die
Disappear, in time
I will disappear, in the end
Into nothing, I will blend.
But for now I am opaque
Trying to make you notice
My hand, outstretched, for you to take.

I can make you feel like heaven
Be with me now, nowhere near the end
I will show you things you haven't seen
I will understand you like you've never been
Helping you is helping me
I'm growing, but I'm lonely
And loneliness is drowning me.

If you will keep me afloat
Then I will let you know
What you really mean to me
And I will try to make you happy.
