When home isn't safe and I need to escape
Running so far away and restless
Lost in a maze of mixed desires and emotions
Hiding the tear stained face and scarred body
Something they're afraid of sharing.
I want to hold his hand and keep it there
Just to feel somewhat sheltered
In a body that I'm not comfortable in
But he pulls away, unknowing
What security he gives me.
Another one lost to stupidity
Another one lost to arrogance
Another one lost to fear
Who's left to comfort me?
I don't know where I'm running
Or how far it will take me.
But when I clear this maze
And my mind
I will have found everything I searched for.
