Show Me

Show Me

show me the light,

show me the way

light up they sky with the dreams I gave away

show me the love

show me my needs

show me everything that lives in me.

somewhere I lost myself within myself

I lost my voice, my heart, my passion

I lost the tick that makes my heart beat

I lost the boom that makes my blood flow.

I got caught up in the world around me

trying to please those who surround me

when I got on my own, I didn't know how to be alone

I didn't know how to be a man because I was used to feeding off of someone else's hands.

so I say this loud and say this proud

if there is a heavenly father then hear me now

show me the light

show me the way

light up the sky with dreams and talent I threw away

show me the love

show me my needs

I am giving my life to you

just show me.
