Saving you

sleeping, dreaming, pain
I can hear you, you know
the walls are watching, feeling, knowing
from birth to adulthood
they have seen your life, your pain, your love
I know its hard
praying and trusting in a better outcome
a better life
is it that easy to want to forget
I've tried, you know
to be your rock, your foundation, your trust
you've become so suspicious
darkness and fear linked closely together
you fear what you dont know
what isnt normal,
you fear yourself.
I cant explain, but what is there to be explained
no words can describe the bursting flames of color.
I know it brings you such relief, as the world, the skies become clear again
you want to hide,
but darkness brings you fear
what is hidden amongst us is forgotten
forgotten and misplaced
your breathing - your barely alive
we all look but we dont see
we see what we want to see
avoiding the truth
self consciously blurring our vision
only driving us to destruction
destruction - not rebirth
the walls are seeing you as you are
no lies, only truths
a silent partner, a constant reminder
you will be claimed for what you are
seeing the send, i see the start
I'm here, you know
I wont let you become that forgotten truth
another example, another mistake
we're taking but giving nothing back
we're saving the obvious
but forgetting to save ourselves.
