If only I could know the truth,
If only I could be the perfect son to you,
As I get older, get a little more sober,
I hold space but I don't seek closure,
They say the beauty in the eye of the beholder,
I grew up fast I wish my childhood was slower,
Was busy worrying about the reapers and the sowers,
I felt the weakest as the weeper and the knower,
I kept my secrets in the box, I couldn't lock it,
The place I buried it is where I had to blossom,
All the places I've been, where I am is new,
The voices fear the quietin', Leviathan en route,
Like horse hair on violins the violence pursues,
Preturbed, I knew the feelings way to well but couldn't find the words,
Too busy digging for a purpose had to find me first,
Meet me where I stand,
If only I can love you like you think I can,
I had no love for me I found relief in open hands,
If only you could hold a space for me to be,
It's only right for me to let my inner child dream,
I remember when he almost lost me to the sea,
You'll never lose me I'm forever yours, honorably,
Forever yours.
