THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE... (I HOPE...)
can you see what I've been through
how it's dragged me down
how I search for my smile
and try to resist my frown
have you been through hell
has your unconditional trust
been betrayed beyond redemption
are you ready to bust
can you bear it
can you bare it
can you share it all with me
can you hear it
can you feel it
is it more than you can see
do you wear it
on your face and sleeve
how long must we grieve
can you bear it
can we bare it
can we share it completely
I believe that healing
is sharing the worst feeling
trusting someone to understand
it's not how you had it planned
you're not bad or so fucked up
that you need poisons in your cup
you don't need to die
you don't need to lie
you just need to cry
one good cry
you can bear it
if you bare it
share it all and let it go
you can hear it
you can feel it
make it real and let it show
it is over
let it end now
the last wave of pain is the worst
but the blessing
is undressing
and remembering how to trust
your hunger and thirst
let it go or you are cursed
don't you know that healing
is sharing the worst feeling
trusting someone to understand
it's not how you had it planned
you're not bad or so messed up
that you need poisons in your cup
you don't need to die
you don't need to lie
you just need to cry
one good cry
then let it go
move on to another seed
and let it grow
and just know
you can bear it
if you bare it
share it all and let it go
you can hear it
you can feel it
make it real and let it show
it is over
let it end now
the last wave of pain is the worst
but the blessing
is undressing
and remembering how to trust
your hunger and thirst
let it go or you are cursed
every new love is the first
Bare It
