Deception
A sense of desperation comes over me, a million thoughts race thru my mind.
My mouth gets dry, can't catch my breath, my eyes do not deceive me.
My knees get weak, can barely walk; just one more step I tell myself.
Just one more step that's all I need; my mind wont respond for my heart feels weak.
Just one more step that's all I need; I must walk tall & proud you must not see.
Just one more step and I'll be there; to get away that's all I need.
I wont look back, I walk so proud the tears roll down my cheeks.
I wont look back I promise you, oh no you wont see me this weak.
A sense of loss comes over me, I've lost myself in what I've seen.
My mouth wont speak, my heart will cry; will walk away so tall so proud.
My mouth gets dry, can't catch my breath, my eyes do not deceive me.
My knees get weak, can barely walk; just one more step I tell myself.
Just one more step that's all I need; my mind wont respond for my heart feels weak.
Just one more step that's all I need; I must walk tall & proud you must not see.
Just one more step and I'll be there; to get away that's all I need.
I wont look back, I walk so proud the tears roll down my cheeks.
I wont look back I promise you, oh no you wont see me this weak.
A sense of loss comes over me, I've lost myself in what I've seen.
My mouth wont speak, my heart will cry; will walk away so tall so proud.
