Petals In The Grass

Skinned Knees

I've been down
Stand me up please
I'm so tired of crawling
On skinned knees

Do I deserve this fate?
Down on all fours
Filth in my wounds
From dirty floors

This journey very harsh
I drag myself along
Is this my punishment?
For doing something wrong?

Straighten me out
Bring me to my feet
Make me better
Make me complete

I won't charge a dime
No hidden fees
I'm just tired of crawling
On skinned knees
