I wake up in the morning feeling like a child
But something inside me is crazy and wild

The words pour fourth like water
Pennies spilling, made of copper

It boils over and it burns
Remembering lessons I have learned

I yearn for the light hidden behind your eyes
Like the sea and its stormy skies

I cry but my words fall upon deaf years
Struggling to see you clearly through the tears

Oh a child I am and child I will be
Will I ever be able to see

I am blind lost in darkness
Feeling empty no more no less

Pain is riddled in my chest
Is this all just a test

I gave my all you want my best
Stop wait I need to rest

Holding on to your hand
I am falling help me stand

You are strong you can see
But why do you ignore me

I am trapped behind glassy expanses
Standing in silent trances

I am afraid to move my feet
Will the earth crumble beneath

My hands reach out and brush your face
Just one touch just one trace

Your heart is soft I melted you
Didn't think I could get through

I cannot look but I can see
I'll hold you here next to me
