Analysis of Myself for you.

Daniel strehle 1999 (Port Jefferson)



Tell me something I don’t know, tell me I can change.
Let me know if you can dream and tell me what has changed.
Let me know when you think your life has rearranged.
Tell me all about what made you feel strange.
I’ll get by alone in solitude without a fear of shame.
With fear I don’t shed a tear I tell you I am sane, I lie in vain its all the same the stain will then remain. Come in and look around you see lost I am when you leave me be I know I’m a fool who can’t be free. Tell me why I find you not with me. Thank you kindly for my needs being seen. Every day I grow more mean and walk up and down the stream.
My thoughts have changes and so have yours you need to hear my plea.
Myself for you will never be it haunts me every time I sleep you can tell me who I have to be and I will set the sails for the deep.
I will be yours forever dream.
