It's Me

Trapped In lurid dreams

Staggering in darkest night

Bitter coldness,

Stabbing your back

A sudden warmth will embrace you

Carry you to the light.

Now open your eyes,

It’s me baby, it’s me.

Lost in a black forest

No route in sight

Where even shrubs and trees

Lying await to bite

Here comes a hand

That will hold yours tight

Lead you to safety

Guard you and guide

Now open your eyes,

It’s me baby, it’s me.

Shamed of your own reflection

Given by that treacherous pond

Others pass by

With a scornful sigh -

What an ugly little thing

Useless and shy.

Sweeping in soundless cry

Longing to fly, longing to climb high.

A sudden wind will lift you

Up to the sky.

Now open your eyes

And find yourself

On top of the world

And right beneath your feet

There is me.
