Cruel Stage

Take me for what I'm worth
Though it may not amount to much
Take me from this abyss
And put me back in touch
Though I have strayed from you
Though I have fallen from grace
I am back on higher ground
Up from that lonely place

[1st Chorus]
Cos I have found the going tough
And you have suffered long enough
And I am undoin' this cruel stage
That I've been going through

These words they come hard
I've tried to make them live
I carve them from a humbleness
I'm not familiar with
And though I have built a world
Made out of panes of glass
I won't shatter yours no more
With a pain that lasts

[2nd Chorus]
And I have found the going tough
But I will find the strength enough
And I am undoin' this cruel stage
That I've been going through

I didn't mean to hurt you
No that's not what I meant
Now I mean to alert you of my true intent

Take me for what I'm worth
Though it may not amount to much
Take me from this abyss
And put me back in touch

[1st Chorus]
