Pledge

When Vows Turn

Pledge

the mirror holds my stare,
the walls are cold and bare
and I
look upon my face,
and turn away in disgrace
when I
don't know where to turn,
my soul begins to burn
and I
can't find any measure of hope,
fingers let slip the rope

~

I wanna know the way,
please show me the way.
I wanna know the way to
take my pain away.

I sit alone in the dark,
since the bullet missed its mark
for I
thought i was to be safe,
But couldn't outrun the hate
now I
can't find a reason to live,
one less pain to forgive
for my
future is drowning in sorrow,
nothing to fear but tomorrow

~

No don't show me the way
I don't wanna know the way.
to take my pain away,
would leave me with nothing
for today.
