Lyrics
Make Me Whole
I feel life in my hands
I know you understand what I mean
His care is so intense
I build up my defenses for here my spirit's clean
Chorus:
I see color when you speak
When I feel our rhythms peak
We're an overwhelming tide
Why keep it all inside
It's your love that makes me high
You're the reason why I try
To give in to kindred souls
Won't you help me make me whole
Whole, whole
Could there be just one word
That never loses meaning with use
That vibrated only love, truth
And innocence of youth, it's what I'd choose for me and you
Chorus:
If love was free as sound
With strength to lift us from our bounds
And leave this crazed
Societal haze
Inspiring my heart
Finish what you start
And end self-hating
Start elevating
Chorus:
And when time unveils her mask
The measurelessness of math
Will give us proper space
To evolve in strength and grace
It's your love that makes me high
You're the reason why I try
To give in to kindred souls
As they help me make me whole
Whole
Whole, whole, whole, whole
Whole, whole, Whole, whole
