Are You With Me Now

By Bruce Clifford 

 

I'm stuck in the middle of
this hard place
There's no way out
I'm caught in the cross fire
There's no doubt I want be free of this
I want to contain my heart
I want to move on from this
Find a new place to start
I'm stuck in the after-burn
I'm broken into too many pieces
I'm trapped in between the first
and second floor
I'm stuck and I don't know what for
I want to be free of this
I want to forget my pain
I want to share just one kiss
All I can do is take blame
I'm stuck in the middle of
this hard place
I can't figure out or forget my shame
I can't continue recycling all these doubts
Are you with me now
