Hold Me Near

Cloudy skies and empty eyes
Surround me on every side
Nobody can seem to understand
How much I have to confide

My brimming cup has been filled
Yesterday’s ashes have been spilled
Feel my torment, feel my fear
Close your eyes and hold me near

Windy air and tousled hair
Feel like I’ve been everywhere
Seen the pain in all our brains
And don’t we wish life was fair?

My sore heart is all filled up
Yesterday is not so far away
Sense my fear and hold me near
Help me live thru another day
