Sit here surrounded
Drown out the screaming voices
Retreat into your mind
It’s do or die. Just make the choice
Sing the song of pounding thoughts
Embrace the pain and ease the ache
Don’t admit that your caught
Just shout out louder
Can’t accept can’t deny
Twist and bend, but don’t fall over
Pick up your shattered heart
Lock it, hide it, no second chance to start
Where are you running to?
You can only retreat for so long
Backed into a wall
Cold hard facts. You don’t belong.
Palms of your hands reaching up
Cry the tears release the fears
Might be silently screaming
But wipe away the doubt
Twist and bend but I’m not falling over
Hold my shaking hands
He is still calling out
Climb out of the boat. Put your feet on land
