no one is home

Tears in my eyes
my soul in my hands
I kneel before God
and trembling
offer my heart.
"Please," I whisper
"You fix this for me."
But there is no God
and there is no soul
I am on my knees alone
holding out empty hands
and begging only the air.

still

I'm sorry for everything
lately I've been thinking
maybe I'm better off alone
so I can do no harm
whatever I say, think or do
for me there's no happy ending
without you
I'm still right here
trying to find myself
wherever you are or go
that's still where I want to be
