A Million Years

Push a pin into my arm. I will bleed like anyone
Pull it out and I forget
On a trail blazed with words. One that I was lost upon
The road that I depended on, I follow no more
Tortured man take your hand, take it from the fire now
Place it in cool water
A hypocrite is one who prays only when he feels pain
It’s time to open your eyes. So open your eyes
I could wait a million years, look into a billion eyes
To find another love like this
I could wait a million years
The slamming door the unseen wall
The hurt I never could forget, I struggle to remember
And take my hand from the fire refusing all intended scars
You are cool water. Into you, I swim
I could wait a million years, look into a billion eyes
To find another love like this
I could wait a million years
Held still in one place for too long
Gone blind to the miracle of saving
I pray this angel in my eyes was put here to save my life
Through your eyes I feel your soul
What I feel I must believe
What I believe I live
This coming from a man who clenched the truth so tight in his hands
Then opened to find evil
Found trusting love again
I could wait a million years, look into a billion eyes
To find another love like this
I could wait a million years
