I find myself amusing.
When I'm outside, I live to cheer everyone up that is feeling down around
me.
I can be bouncing off walls and telling jokes at the speed of light.
But when I come back to my room, I find myself alone in the late of night.
The life that I live to please others is stripped from me and I'm left
empty.
The day sinks in and I sink into want and need.
I find myself not knowing where to turn to for a listening ear.
I end up on my knees, empty, and beaten, arms stretched out wide and eyes
looking up.
Old familiar words I sing in my head:
I am the only one to blame for this
Somehow it all ends up the same
Soaring on the wings of selfish pride
I flew too high and like Icharus I collide
With a world I try so hard to leave behind
To rid myself of all but love, to give and die
All said and done I stand alone
Amongst remains of a life I should not own
It takes all I am to believe
In the Mercy that covers me
Did you really have to die for me
All I am for all you are because what I need
And what I believe are worlds apart
Take my world apart
(To need You)
I am on my knees
(To love You)
Take my world apart
(To need You)
Broken on my knees
On my knees
