Heal Yourself

I submerged myself for so many years Hardened my heart I cried no tears I was running away I was trying to hide Thought I knew myself but my truths were lies My distorted sense of self left space for noone else Behind the wall of sleep I felt safe and out of reach A hole inside of me just as deep as any sea Just as dark as any pit, still, I had to fill it in She healed me and set me free Gave me love and sweet release Heal heal heal yourself Reach out now to someone else To someone else (Someone else) Met someone special, I fell in love She knew I was sick but didn't let on God gave me an english rose To heal my heart and save my soul Her love couldn't lift my sadness I wouldn't let her in to share my darkness Then she told me with a smile She was carrying our child A miracle it seemed Would I care to share her dream? She healed me and set me free Gave me love and sweet release Heal heal heal yourself Reach out now to someone else To someone else (Someone else) We set up home, times were good I really tried the best I could Now and then I slipped and fell Became a stranger to myself A second child was born out of love Still the sly and snaky whispers wouldn't stop I had trouble on my mind and in my blood Thought I was free but was in jail Thought I'd won but I had failed Only weak men run away You have to face yourself someday If you find someone you really love Just hang on in there and hang in tough If you've no love for yourself How can you love somebody else? My warring heart tore me apart Spent too long in the dark Angry, a closed book She opened it to living She opened it to giving She opened it to living She healed me and set me free Gave me love and sweet release Heal heal heal yourself Reach out now to someone else She healed me and set me free Gave me love and sweet release Heal heal heal yourself Reach out now to someone else To someone else To someone else To someone else (reach out now to someone else) To someone else (reach out now to someone else)
