I'm a man of my actions, and not just my words
As more and more seem to fail to be
Although there are still those who still shine a light
In the darkness, just the same as I
But sometimes my actions cannot support words
I've spoken in deepest sincerity
For circumstances that so plague my life
Prevent them from showing through distance and time
I hope that you see that this tragedy is mine
Even more so than it falls upon you
In a world where so many talk without walking
My words are but all that can show how I feel
I wish that this life would so kindly incline
To release me from losing before I lose you
For every tragedy that keeps befalling
Keeps so many dreams that I cherish unreal
I wish I could be so much more than I am
I'm afraid I am all that I will ever be
Be it lover or friend, I am still by your side
No matter what this unfair life will allow
I wish I were there by your side, hand in hand
Through your darkness and light, any way I could be
Although I am here, I hope my words confide
That if actions could be, I'd be there with you now
