Beacon

You say your time has come
You're tired of waking up
Don't be obscene, I can't conceive of
Living without you

You say you drag me down
No one should want you now
I start to cry, you kiss my eyes and say
I'm not allowed to 

You were a child forgot 
Lessons of love untaught
Now no embrace can quite replace 
The one that never found you

But I was raised tenderly
And all that was taught to me
I will apply, your parents tried
But they didn't know how to

Burning beacon in the night 
Can't feel it's heat, or see it's light
That single solitary guide, 
it must get lonely there sometimes.
