Can You?

- I have walked open roads
Like nerves in open wounds
Leery for miles to come
Weary of miles gone long
Never once was I where I was at
Unless it was before, or behind me
You can say "I've been there"
But yet you cannot smell the air
You cannot see the dollar bill
The last one left to chase the chill
You cannot look at me
And not recognize who I've become
Can you promise yourself
You won't believe your lies?
Can you seek a waste of hours
to only try never to find them again?
Can you crave that never to find
The life you thought you left behind?
Can you deny and then can you fear
A promise dear and a hope so clear?
I can.
