Calling Names

I can feel you in the night
crying from a rusty cage
your heart spoke about it broken
you let your self down, again
I feel you calling out for someone
your spirit dials up my number
I haven't let you down
I'm still here
all I can do is wait
your not alone
I won't forget who you are
the place is too loud for just the sound of slumber
you can't turn down the noises keeping you from dreaming
escape only in your mind
short distances and quickened time
from the cage you can not get out of
I hear you pleading in the night
I tell the moon to hush the fear.
I ask the stars, my words to relay
you are not alone, not really
i heard you say you wanted some one to care
you seeing only in yourself
perched looking into toilet fountain
do you see your alive now
you scream how mad you are
for your foolishness has never grown out
the lesser you feel seeing it from there
I send a thought your way
you haven't been forsaken
I'm here for you still
the cage seeming smaller
starts feeling like the hunger is devouring what could be left of you
no way out
your anxiety is getting the best of your mind
racing through begging to trade
you'd sing anything just hurry up it's time leave
risk greater than rewards
regret has you by the neck
stuffy air causes panicked breaths
holding your head in your hands
can you hear my voice
your are not alone
I stand right here
I hear you calling out in the night
I feel your fright hitting me
like we two were in the same cage
I feel the urgency in your rhythmic flow
the sinking from the inside first
the boat that is riddled with little holes
but I am here and I won't let you go.
you are not alone
i won't let you drown
not in the night
nor in the day
I hear you calling my name
I feel your hope fizzling out
I won't leave you
you can fight this without me
but I'm not going anywhere
I am standing right here
i know you and you are good
I care
can you hear me calling your name
the same sky above I look up
I say things so it carries to reach you
can you hear me
I can hear your voice calling me.
my words I sent them out
can you hear my voice saying your name
it will be all ok
you are with me
I won't let you give up
the message you feel in your heart
I said these for you
I feel you afraid and hurting in the night.
