i’m running a hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction. i’m trying but the canyon’s ever widening in the depths of my cold heart. i’m searching for a hope that’s tucked away and i wonder- do you hear me, can you see? i’m yearning for shelter and affection that i never found alone. i’m searching for a hero to ride in and save the day. but my “prince charmings” have been momentary lapses of judgements and i’ve given myself away. i’m searching for a hope that’s tucked away and i wonder- do you hear me, can you see? i’m scared judgement looms with lofty glances that can’t see past my scarlet letter. do you hear me? can you see? do you even know that i’m falling down today? i’m under the shadow of this steeple, searching for a hope that’s tucked away and i wonder- do you hear me? can you see?
i’m turning around today
{hope}
