Please Tell me

Please tell me there's a road from here
That takes my hand and takes me there
My only wish is not to fear
Please tell me there's a road to there

Please tell me there's some truth to love
How matter-of-fact it all becomes
I fear that I have been outrun
Please tell me there's some truth to love

Please tell my friends that I am wrong
In thinking that it's all become
And endless mess, a blackened tongue
Please tell my friends that I am wrong
