The Cave

So as the flowers begin to blossom
I feel myself coming out of the costume
That I donned last Halloween
I feel the winter months are so mean to me
And I reflect it, in every scene that I play
Spend my nights alone and pray that in the morning I see rays of sunshine amongst the grey
But all I get is just more rainy days
I like the cave
And yeah it's dark but it feels safe and I'm not ready to behave like everyone walking the pavement
They're all exposed
To the elements and expectations of a life I should be living
No I'm ready to thrive so I just stay inside
But I keep looking for the rays of sunshine
Peering through the cracks for signs, I make it back

So I ask a favour of everyone who ever cared
Please swear that from time to time you'll let me cross your mind
And come and visit the cave and ask me if I'm ready to leave
And if I still say no, on your way out as you wrestle through the trees
Remove a branch and leave a ray of light
To let me know that you'll be back when the time is right
And we'll walk out hand in hand when I have won this fight

Oh would you be the light to my dark?
And could you comfort me and my lonely heart?
Oh would you be the light to my dark?
And could you pick me up when I fall apart?

It's not selfish to work on yourself
But I still need your help
'Cause I've been in here for a while
And I still need to see you smile
And I still need to hear you say that this is gonna' be ok
And if it takes more time
That's alright 'cause I will make it to the light
If you can promise you'll be there
If you can promise I can meet you in the fresh air
If you can promise I can meet you in the fresh air
If you can promise I can meet you
