silently strong but deals with problems in an emotionally concealed manner

Sometimes life can be a burden
Tryna stay one step ahead
I feel the world upon my shoulder each time
I’m standing out on the edge
And my hopes have all deserted me
Like they washed away in the sand
And it’s hurting my pride
Tryna survive
But i know i stand a chance

When you lay your hands
Oh yeah
‘Coz it’s the only thing I have that still makes sense

(Oh baby, when I’m calling out)
Give me love and affection,
Keep telling me, show me the way.
(Oh, if you see me falling down)
Lift me up from the shadows
Will you take me away to a better place?
(And when I’m in my darkest hour)
You’re by my side, to turn the tide,
Until the suffering fades.
When life is getting me down,
getting me down, i’m close to defeat,
Come and lay

ur

hands on me.

Feel this road is getting longer now
And i’m too far away from home
Still I gotta keep on moving on
But I can’t do it on my own
Baby keep my head above water
Help me swim for my life
‘Coz the game is getting harder
The strain is gettin stronger
And I can only face the fight

‘Til I’m healed again,
Rediscovered my strengths,
Those bitter blues are gone…
Oh, gone…

When you love someone so deeply
They become your life
It’s easy to succumb to overwhelming fears
inside
Blindly I imagined I could
Keep you under glass
Now I understand to hold you
I must open up my hands
And watch you rise

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you to become a butterfly
Fly abandoned into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

I have learned that beauty
Has to flourish in the light
Wild horses run unbridled
Or their spirit dies
You have given me the courage
To be all that I can
And I truly feel your heart will
Lead you back to me when you’re
Ready to land

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you to become a butterfly
Fly abandoned into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

I can’t pretend these tears
Aren’t over flowing steadily
I can’t prevent this hurt from
Almost overtaking me
But I will stand and say goodbye
For you’ll never be mine
Until you know the way
it feels to fly

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you to become a butterfly
Fly abandoned into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly
