Stand

                                  So here I stand

Alone by the side of the road

And I'm reaching for you

Someone to hold, something to cling to

I close my eyes

I shove my hands in my pockets and smile

And the darkness drifts away

I'm at peace, if only once in a while



You don't understand

There's nothing to say

When everything seems lost

You can bet we'll somehow find a way



Well, I'm feeling hurt

And I fought back some tears of my own

But there's something to be said for the ones

Who face the darkness alone

You're too cool to care

Too self-righteous to see and believe

It's a bond we'll never break

A chance for one more change of heart



You don't understand

There's nothing to say

When everything seems lost

You can bet we'll somehow find a way



Did your ever think about the ones on top

Do you have the strength to shout it, ready or not

So, I never thought I'd be the one complaining

But, I can't believe it's been inside me all this time



So here I stand!
