your lead

where do we go from here
i cant feel the rhythm of this dance
not this time
i feel the sway
but can't find my feet
then i spin, as you grin,
and feel somehow incomplete

turn the music up
so the bass line rings clear
turn the music up
so my voice will sing
through tears
through fears
un-grounded
ever pounded
into a brain and through the frame
of strength i try to build
i feign

now we waltz
and spin again
do i feel rain?
or is it just pain
unknowing aches
helplessness rakes
will fades and breaks
and i swing back,
forth
in your arms
in your wake
unseen.

turn the music up
so the base line rings clear
turn the music up
so my voice will sing
through tears
through fears

let my feet
dance
with wings.
