Pleading

I've got demons, can't see them

I've got secrets, can't leave them

Got a lot of time and not a lot of money

I've got some will, won't be enough

Have some knowledge, far too unwieldy

Buried under a mountain of selfishness and doubt

Not here to scare you away

Not here to beg for sympathy

No sugarcoating here, this man is unstable, insecure

The challenge, it truly is daunting

But the rewards, do you want them?

Do you believe that broken people can be fixed?

I don't want the wool on my eyes anymore

I want to be fixed, be alive and well

What is the cure? Do you have it?

I'm leaving the cave, but I don't know the exit

I can't do it alone, can you help me?

Because I don't know if I have it in me to make it through

Please tell me you're here

Please tell me you can pull me from my lethargy

The demons, they don't want you, for they're scared

Of your light, your power

Of what you have and what you can do

What can you do? Can you help me beat the bastards?

I'm trying to stop myself

I'm trying to break the curse

I want to be free of the bars that trap me

This won't be quiet, there will be blood

Pain, sacrifice, I guess you knew that already

And I don't know how long this war will last

But can you? Do you want to?

Can you help me?

Can you be there for me, please?
