outside
they’re gone, away, away
to leave me here and hide
everyone is looking
for the one excuse to stay alive
it should’ve mattered
when I lived a lie
but they’re gone, away, away
to leave me here and die
inside
I want to shrink, away, away
only I know why
don’t stare or glare
at the confusion behind my eyes
get me out
back into the familiar sky
I just want to shrink, away, away
don’t make me breathe another lie
outside
inside
my soul is begging
for me to leave this world behind
to stop
to stop
to stop the worries and the why’s
