Uhg
God, right now I just wanna run away
Because I’m hurtin’ more than words can say
I’m running in circles
Jumping the hurdles
But I am losing the races
And I keep on misplacin’
My trust
Could be swayed by a little gust
Any wind turned my way
Would turn me from being okay
It’s late at night again
This keeps happening again and again
It goes just as it always been
And I’m forgetting what you’ve said
It feels out of order
I’m on the border
Line
I just pretend I’m not fine
Because I’m feeling guilty
I think you’d never forgive me
You see I just got back
From the best week at summer camp
But I never felt close
And what I miss the most
Wasn’t you
Or even the games too
It was just the girls
Who made me safe in my own little world
I’m back again and I talk about effort
But I put none in
I just sit in a pool of guilt and sin
As I feel bad about everything
I need a savior hand right now
To pull me out of the doubt
To bring me into life and love
A hand to being me above
Every sad thought and every regret
Bring me above every amount of stress
I just need a safe place to hide
So I’m knocking on your door hoping you’ll let me inside
