Rock Wanted
It's been a long day;
Things got in the way.
There's too much,
But not enough.
The faces I smile at,
They smile back.
It's all nice,
Just don't look twice.
They won't be there;
Like you, they're scared.
And I need something I can't find.
I'm running around
So blind.
I'm crazy and everyone knows.
I need a rock,
Just one thing that I know
Cannot go away from me.
Stand sturdy up in water
I've been drowning in;
Let me hold on.
All I want are the widest open spaces,
And to be locked away
With you;
Give me something to cling to.
With everything changing,
Please give me something
That stays the same,
To keep me sane.
I need a rock,
A strong piece of truth
That can't be moved,
Someone I'll forever
Give my heart to.
You know that,
It's so fast,
Billions of seconds
Have flown right past.
And I am lost, in my city.
Someone who can hold me down
Won't stop the world from going 'round.
My strong rock,
Don't let me drown.
