That's All That I've Asked.

Why's it so hard
to say how I feel?
I feel like I'm trapped
in a cage of steel.

My stomach's all twisted.
I'm unable to sleep.
My heart's in my throat,
and I feel if it leaps,

Then I'll never come back
to this life that I'll leave.
I feel when I'm gone
nobody will grieve.

That's just my opinion.
But deep down inside,
I know people do care.
Though I feel like a beast

that no one can love
because of my past.
For someone to love me,
that's all that I've asked.
