In Spite of Everything

anguish is near

so close with me here

and I have nowhere to run

and nowhere to hide

so just let me lie

here by your sidebut before I sleep

before I escape

please heed my demand

and just hold my handjust for awhile

I hope you dont mind

but I have nowhere to go

and I cant decide

so paint me a smile

as I close my eyesbut before I sleep

take leave of my grief

so just one last time

I will take what is mine
