By now you must know how I feel
You know I how much I care
You know what I really want
I know you can see that

I don't know why I waited so long
Just one second is all it takes
But I've wasted so many long years
Years that could have meant so much more

I can no longer get a nice welcome home
I will be stranded and strained
Trying to resist will take incredible strength
For your sake and mine I can't

The possibility is scary
You know I want it to end
The fear and pain we both share
I can see it in your eyes

I know you aren't alright
Please let me see into you
Pull me in please
Pull me into the darkness

I will share what you have
You know that I need it
I never left this other world
The dark one I was immersed in

It's been many years now
And I don't know how much more I can take
I will be there in the darkness
Waiting to take your hand

I will never leave
I belong in this nothingness
I will stay here
And I will wait for you

You know what I want
We both know it
I wish we didn't pretend I don't feel
I wish we could feel what I do
together
