Wrap These Arms

Wrap These Arms (Link to song)

She said I was free, the first day we met I could see

She was a special lady, could wrap her arms around me

And despite these scars, and despite these tears, to spite my fears

We could go somewhere. It would be far from here,

But also I'd be far from there, far from the desolation that led nowhere

I had found my peer, to confide and steer, the bulwark between my lone heart and sheer dark, where nothing mattered if we never grew apart

But what it came down to was a choice

Between the land or sea, between my God and me, between everything I ever wanted or she

Here she was dictating terms that she didn’t even know herself, terms that my mind had built and my heart had killed

Bombarded by choices each and every day, but only some have implications in a multitude ways, 

My soul is a maze, My brain has been hazed, She is looking amaze-ing

And every new day, brings some new ways

So when your stressed and feeling like you're gonna break

Just take a long walk, And have a good talk

Some reflection’s what you need

With every new day, comes a new way

So when you're stressed and feeling like your gonna break

Just take a long walk, and have a good talk

Self- Reflection is the key

We are born to this place, with but a name and a face,

hoping others will pull the covers and lead the way,

We think its our taste, but it’s the disgrace

Of thinking everyone around us has nothing decent to say

The descent of man came when he pulled from the land

Amassing his resources, isolation in his own quarters

Man will only know his potential, when he meets his other

When he embraces his brother, when he finds that lover

He becomes whole when not when he finds his way, but when he follows his days not by counting hours but harnessing power

That need only be realized, emphasized and surmised in order to surprise his former weak mind

Then man will know, not to follow the flow but become attached to something permanent

The pain will cease, the chest will breathe

And everything will open around me

Even when you find yourself, who is gonna deal with you?

Once you find that girl that can bear the weight of your world

Holdfast to her, nevermind the whirls, and never mind the twirls

Cuz only she can unfurl and at the same time make your toes curl 

Each of us needs to understand there is no “one”

Just a person who can put up with our scum

So make her your chum, make her your hun

But don’t be a bum or that girl’s gonna run
