My Pride

I want to silence
everything but your voice
still and small

I want to submit my will
to yours
as you work through us all

and this pride:
an empty, demonic
promise inside
I want it to die
-------------
I want to silence
everything but your voice
inside

and if I wait I know
I'll hear you clearer,
than ever before

help me close
this open door
theres' only death
you hold so much more

understand
this anger
is fear
is my own self righteous,
self loathing, inside

I need your rain
to clean my eyes
till all I hold onto
is you
inside

I need your silence
to take over
my self reliance

I need to humble
myself
infront of everyone else
because
nothing else

you ask me to
and I love you
