I need someone to hold my hand
A mountain is looming before me
The wall in my heart won't budge
I'm safe behind it and yet so unsatisfied
I need someone to hold my hand
The trouble can't be seen
But my fear is waking again
Rising from disabilities I can't hide
I need someone to hold my hand
It's painful, the climb
And lonely so many times
Each step retracting from my path
I need someone to hold my hand
Take my hits through gritted teeth
Break the rules for me
Sink and float willingly
I need someone to hold my hand
Pull me through with a glance
Urge me on with a smile
Call out my name when I get there
But,
If it's too much to ask
I just need you
To hold my hand.
