Applauded Weakness

Appreciated Lack

What if you applauded weakness

Praise those who can be strong enough to know their fears

amaze me with your woes and feed my ears with the darkness you repress

i can attest to the fact that this act is difficult

its not easy being sleazy

there is no fun when you run from your problems

it's not great when all you do is hate

but it is perfect when you admit

tell me of the pit you feel trapped in

i can't guarantee salvation but maybe you can dance merrily in your hole

you may be stuck but you still have a goal

to grow

to expand

to demand what is rightfully yours

love

I will help you rise above what you believe to be your floor

And forevermore you will bow before your flaw

And I will stand in awe of what you have to carry
