When unto night ill dreams befall
When into light the shadows creep
What is illusion?
What is confusion?
What is the truth in what's said or unspoken?
I've tried to understand it all
But I may be thinking way too deep
So many exclusions
With so few conclusions
Is it untruth, or a heart oh so broken?

Has everything that I've been through so changed me
That I just can't see poeple's hearts anymore?
Maybe I've become blind
To all pain but what's mine
Sometimes I just don't know what to think at all
But there is one thing that I know shouldn't be
The loss of a memory before it's in store
We're but wasting our time
With each moment declined
We think we're so smart, but know nothing at all

I've spoken each word I feel and fear
And I've tried from the depth of my heart to explain
Why I can't reach conclusion
Why, for me, it's confusion
And the only thing certain is you've changed your mind
Somewhere amidst all that you've let me hear
From the start and the after, you seem to abstain
I don't want an illusion
And I don't want exclusion
I want to know all that you're feeling inside

I want to know your heart
All your pains, and all your joys
Both before and after we first met
What elates, and what annoys
I want to know just how you feel
On nothing and everything
I want to know how you see you
And the hopes to which you cling

I can keep talking, and you can stay silent
Or we both can go our seperate ways
But both would hurt more
Than not trying much more
To relate to each other through smiles and scars
But the only way that I'll feign to be silent
Is if you can open to me in some way
My heart has been poured
And just what was it for?
So completely, you'll know we can share heart to heart

I want to spend whatever moments
Which God sees fit in giving us time
To share every smile
With each moment worthwhile
Loving friends to the end through the good and the bad
I want you to know we're both poets
Both in words and in actions, in kind
We've both walked weary miles
And we've both faced our trials
But we've both found our passions in times between sad

I want to continue to know you
Every day that we possibly can
When the days in-between
Bring but words on a screen
Because we'll ever be thankful we're friends as we are
That's why I continue to show you
Every day that I possibly can
You have brought out of me
Someone I couldn't see
I want to know your heart

I want to know your heart
All your pains, and all your joys
Your smiles and frowns
Your ups and downs
Let silence be destroyed
I want to know our friendship
Means as much to you as I
That we both can defend
A love shared between friends
Because friendship is worth every fight
I want you to know my heart
And to know these things of me
Each moment is what we make it
And there are moments left to be
I want us to know there's a next time
In each moment we know we must part
I want us to cherish our friendship
My friend, I want to know your heart
