How long has it been? And yet I'm still faced with these same questions. Ones that can drown a faith under endless currents of doubt. The only difference is at times I thought I had felt. But there are so many inconsistencies to what I believe. Could it be that I wanted to be deceived? Still there is a side of me that hangs every belief, and every hope on the knowledge of you. And well, if you aren't that truth , I just don't know what to do. Still I have held behind my fear of the failure faith too long. Tonight questions cannot go unasked. And I will throw every stone unturned with the rage that will either cement or bring the most painful of change, or help me cling by my very nails to the smallest mustard seed of truth. Where are you? Or more to the point why aren't you here? For years and years and years I felt like I made excuses for you. And for myself. But now I want no more reasons, only you. And if that isn't possible let me walk away with the knowledge Of the absence of you. Rebuild and move on. Or learn the real you and how I was wrong

So here it goes again, I'm down to my last end I've spent my whole life trying to pretend That I could make things fit, where they didn't fit in Or that I could hold myself together , like I had both ends. But the failures I hid, started to hide me And the person I thought I could be, well that just wasn't me And the people I broke, have all left me, and I tried to revive their trust But that turned up empty. So now I walk alone, on the miles I put between our souls I'm learning to reflect your love I just hope that fires not cold. Until the day I show So you can count on me. Then the only thing I have left is me So ill build from here While failure calls from my past Try to serenade my ears. But I must push forward I have to give up those ghosts If I'm to ever have more Than what my chest can hold To whom it may concern I don't expect you to forgive me now But I will work for a time when you'll hear a different sound A heart that beats Not for a selfish man But a love for others That with every beat expands But until then Me and my heart will walk the miles I drove us all apart. We will put hope in every step Until there is no distance left. But that's just the dream And I am no there yet. The only thing that I have left Is what's inside, Inside of my chest
3.
Can I give you my soul? And all of its intentions within? Instead of the mess of me that I've made Instead of what's to come, Instead of what I've been. Can I give you my heart? If you peel away every pain Every shortcoming And every last rotting thing Every part It has a core that WANTS to be true. And it had every intention of caring for you the best it could do Can I give you my dreams? Instead of my failures Instead of where I stand Can I give you my love? Instead of who I am
