Make Me Alive!

Someone To Hold You To Close! Someone To Hurt You To Deep! Someone To Sit In Your Chair and Ruin Your Sleep!
Someone To Need You to Much! Someone To Know You To Well! Someone To Pull You Up Short! To Put You Through Hell!
Someone You Have To Let In! Someone Whose Feelings You Spare! Someone Who Like It or Not, Will Want You To Share A Little A Lot! Someone To Crowd You With Love. Someone To force You to Care! Someone Who Will Make You Come Through! Will Always Be There as Frightened as you, of being alive!!!! BEING ALIVE!

SOMEBODY HOLD ME TO CLOSE, SOMEBODY HURT ME TO DEEP! SOMEBODY SIT IN MY CHAIR, AND RUIN MY SLEEP AND MAKE ME AWARE OF BEING ALIVE. SOMEBODY NEED ME TO MUCH. SOMEBODY KNOW ME TO WELL, SOMEBODY PULL ME UP SHORT AND PUT ME THROUGH HELL, AND GIVE ME SUPPORT, FOR BEING ALIVE. MAKE ME ALIVE! MAKE ME ALIVE! MAKE ME CONFUSED. MOCKED WITH PRAISE! LET ME BE USED! VARY MY DAYS! BUT ALONE IS ALONE! NOT ALIVE!

SOMEBODY CROWD ME LOVE, SOMEBODY FORCE ME TO CARE. SOMEBODY LET ME COME THROUGH! I WILL ALWAYS BE THERE AS FRIGHTENED AS YOU TO HELP US SURVIVE! BEING ALIVE! BEING ALIVE! BEING ALIVE!
