"i still need wisdom"



still wandering
losing sight
of what i thought
could be right
i wander on
trudging through
hoping to find some light
realizing then
i need YOU
i stop denying
who i am
and stop trying
to hear these voices
that left me here
in the cold
the people and faces
that took me places
and now here i am
growing old
i look back and see
that if only
i had listened
i would not be
in this wasteland
how do i get back?
can i?
no!
my time has passed
so i look to see
that i can change me
so they will have a future instead.
now waking up
i start to think
wiping sweat from my brow
i know what i have to do
i actually need 
to listen to you
i'm sorry I was wrong
that i wanted to fight
but i realize now
that you were right
once i decide wrong
and never go on
to do what I need
i can never go back
'cause I'll never
want to go on
thank you for helping me
thank you for letting me see
i still need wisdom
to carry me on.
