I Just Need Someone


i need someone whose gonna love me and nurture me during my ups and downs
 
For i cannot walk this path by myself 
 
But it seems falling in love and settlin is not the plan mother venus has
 
Forget fallin in love just being loveful is how im gettin down
 
Im loving on her and walking out
 
Walking out, bustin out, and letting out seems to be the theme of this dreadful bout
 
Who can i call on when im too bashful
 
Who can i call on when i have no body to call
 
Im a diamond in the rough
 
Whose process for glory has taken a halt
 
 
I need someone to see who i really am
 
People dont see the real me
 
Just a painting weve all left our opinionated illminded strokes on
 
I only know sadness and madness
 
and lust not love
 
I must rise above
 
but am i ever looking up
 
Shes out there and our paths will meet
 
But im laying in the gutters with defeat draggin on my feet
 
 
Smooth Caramel was the first
 
The muse for the original pieces
 
She was constructed in the finest lands on Terra
 
With silk skin and long black hair
 
When curled they bounced with no care
 
i loved her
 
but she didnt love me
 
Now she lays with her other
 
while im praying on my knees
 
that even though she betrayed shell find a way back to me
 
 
 
The Sheppard of the Devil made her way in my life
 
It seemed at the time our summer fling was right
 
a physco she is she left me for the crows
 
tried to ruin my life with the lowest of blows
 
but still i loved her so
 
All along she was still in love with mr.Incompatible
 
 
Ebony Majesty the latest tragedy
 
The play where she can never say
 
and let me down
 
just leading me on 
 
Making me walk into the night with visions of our fading love light
 
 
i just need someone to ease the cries and screams
 
someone who will make me feel life is the move 
 
and a forced afterlife is the fools groove
 
sometimes i feel ive lost myself 
 
but all i need is a little help.
 
and all i need is a little love and ill be back to myself.
