Some One To Lift You

Something dark calls out your name
from the shadows is it to blame
for the voices trapped in your head
too late to turn them off
will they leave you for dead

Nothing's right
nothing's where it should be
can't see the forest for the trees
too many have tried to be free
only to fall...fall deep in to misery

You scream at the top of your lungs
but no one's around to hear your plea
lost in the crowd wondering where you are
somehow this just can't be all there is
no..this can't be your destiny

Your dreams have escaped
not wanting to be drowned by this world
you're sinking faster and faster in the quicksand
how can you save yourself from the grey
when you turn your head from the cause

The voices are calling your name again
they know just how to present themselves
they're using your weakness against you to get in
gathering more and more strength along the way
not too much longer can you hold on

But there's a glimpse of hope hanging on
a light at the end of your tunnel of life
just pull on your silver string and maybe you can return
you could even be the person you want or used to be
maybe some one will notice or acknowledge you

Will she ever notice that you are alive
so many times you put yourself out there
only to get shot down so you can't fly
but there's still time, some one may be out there
some one to lift you above the clouds
