How Do You

How do you hold out your hand
And reach for help
Without fear that it will crumble like sand

How do you hold out your heart
And let the sun shine down
And push away the dark

How do you see the light
See through the clouds
And gain back your sight

I never thought it could be so hard
To say "I need your help"
And not feel like a retard

How do you trust someone
When you've been hurt some many times before
When will the trial and error be done

When will the depression go away
When will the solitude take a break
So you can look to a brighter day

How can you reach out to the ones that care
And let them know how your feeling
Without letting your heart tear

How do you do you do it
How do you just let go
How do you get trust to fit like a broken in mitt

How do you hold out your heart
And let the sun shine down
Without fear of it being ripped apart

How do you stop analyzing it
So you can leave it in the back of your mind
And not have anymore fits

I just want to know how
So I can rest easy
And let darkness take a bow
