This Close

These swollen faces,
appear below.
from cold, dark places,
I'm scared to go.

They have no secrets,
they tell no lies.
they trade in weakness,
I've seen their eyes.

Someday you'll need to stand,
tall again, stronger and,
they'll be there to share the pain with you,
and you know that you'll need them too.

You're this close to your place in the world.
This close, and you've almost made it.
All the faces that you see
smile back and point away.
You're this close and how love you've waited.

I change direction,
I change my mind.
I've found protenction,
to hide behind.

But I'm tired of fighting,
'cause I've slowly found.
these wounded creatures,
they're all around.

Someday you'll need to stand,
tall again, stronger and,
they'll be there to share the pain with you,
and you know that you'll need them too.

You're this close to your place in the world.
This close, and you've almost made it.
All the faces that you see
smile back and point away.
You're this close and how love you've waited.

Someday you'll need to stand,
tall again, stronger and,
they'll be there to share the pain with you,
and you know that you'll need them too.

Someday you'll need to stand,
tall again, stronger and,
they'll be there to share the pain with you,
and you know that you'll need them too.

You're this close to your place in the world.
This close, and you've almost made it.
All the faces that you see
smile back and point away.
You're this close and how love you've waited,waited.
oh.
