DarkPoetry -|- Munkey -|- For You

For You

Here I stand before you
Tattered and torn
Broken and bent
I stand here emotionally naked

My pride is on rent
I'll be honest
I have nothing to offer one such as you
But I'll give my all anyways

Through the fire and the shattered glass
I'll walk and I won't even feel the pain
My mind is in another place
as I hold on to the memory of you

While I stand here naked for you
I feel it's all for not
Will you even look my way
Or am I just wasting your time

I can't say that I'll be perfect
Never been before
But as I stand in your glowing light
Never had reason to before

I'll try...for you
