I need you.

As much as I hate to admit it,

As much as I hate this feeling,

This weakness,

I can’t keep this lonely march

Up for much longer



I’ve been scrambling,

Barefoot and broken

Over this rocky ground.

The path I once was on

Is far behind me now.

I don’t know how to get back,

And I’m not even sure that I want to get back,

Because I’m different now.



The smooth, gently winding road

I’ve left behind

Isn’t the place for me anymore,

But this, this desert desolation,

Wandering, alone and bleeding

With no direction, no strength

Isn’t where I want to be.



I can’t keep doing this,

But I don’t know where else to go,

Because to stop is to die

And as much as I’m hurting,

I’m still clinging to this life,

Clinging to that oh so fleeting hope

That there’s something better over the next horizon,

But I just don’t know how much longer I can hold on.



So I’m begging,

Before my feet can’t go on anymore,

Come along side of me.

I know that I’ve pushed you away before,

But I don’t have any strength left to push with

And I’m desperate for you



I know I should have come sooner,

But I was stubborn,

And I was wrong

But you said you’d always be there for me,

You said you’d carry me,

That you’d hold me,

So please,

Hold me now
