Gently I

I’m better off alone
I know it
This is a one man mission
I want to give you all when I’m giving
But then I’ve got nothing more
I know it comes around
Oh am I the only one who’s tired of it coming around?
Probably never let you know
But I think I hold on for fear of letting you down

Every time I try to know it
Feels like there’s something missing
I cannot sleep it off
But I can hide it
By sleeping in
No need to see the day
It’s only long and crowded
Keep it away
Don’t want to know about it

I’m gonna take my time
To say it
Cos’ I’m not sure what I’m saying
Gonna take my words
And plant them
They can talk when they’re tall trees swaying
Let it take control
We’re only human
Afterall
This world is all consuming

Have I ever really questioned
Why I wanted
Everything I have
That surrounds me
Memory haunted?
And everything I lack
How could I hold so strong?
Carry on my back
All of these rights and wrongs?

I do not want to hurt you
I do not want to numb you
I do not wish to change you
You are who
Ever you are
Ever this day
Ever this dream walk
Ever your way
