Inside They Flee
I have narrowed them down to as few as is true
Taken people once great and made them small to me
I have lost some of the best but for a good cause, my cause
I have tried to keep face when things look bleak and not show what goes on inside
There is a girl thousands of miles away, she doesn’t run
She is there on the outside looking in hoping to join me someday closer inside
There is a girl in the very centre
So afraid, so hurt, that I am holding a light for hoping she will be safe
There are people all around inside
They are expecting and fleeing
Leaving me in the middle
They don’t mean to but they don’t know how I feel
Am I wrong to expect them to understand that this is just me
Inside, watching them all flee
Some will stick around the centre, a core
A core of comfort, because they know, probably even more than I do, who I am
I want to fix this, I want to fix me, I want to help her fix it
But I cannot, I don’t know how except music.
Music I do know, so lets hope music can fix it for me.
