I Only Want

by Anthony   Dec 13, 2005


Bury my fear,
Take away my worry.
The things I need the most,
Are so far from our grasp.
I've given all that you need,
I've given up myself for you.
But you can't do the same.
I know you can't.
I will always be burdened with my past.
I can't clear my conscience.
I'm trapped with the pain of one million sins.
I only want what I can't have.
I can't have sanctuary,
I can't have solitude,
I can't have a place to call home.
I only want what you can't give.
I want you to tell me why.
I want stop from screaming.
I want to be purified.
To be touched by the light instead of the dark.
My only home forever is this deep inside,
Dark, damp, lonely, soul.
I'm alone when I'm surrounded by you,
Your love,
Your heart,
I'm alone because I'm selfish.
Selfish to want whats out of reach,
To want everything that I can never have.
