From the Inside
We were two peas in a pod
I find it odd that we aren’t meant to be
We are still best friends made from God
I don’t mind the ache as long as I’m free
Unable to figure myself out of this ribcage
I felt frightened and lonely without you on stage
From the inside, it’s hard to move on gracefully
Could You get rid of my sin of loving you so easily?
I don’t know exactly what you put me through
But, you made me feel numb inside
Oh, it’s probably the ridiculous things you do
That once hurt me, now I simply hide
I don’t know exactly what you put me through
But, you made me feel high with pride
Oh, it’s probably the stupid things we did in our youth too
That once healed me from the inside
We were lovers, but now you’re a mere friend
I find it surprising that you were there through thick and thin
We loved one another, then I broke before I bend
I want to find relief from this grief from deep down within
Unable to figure myself out of this ribcage
I felt frightened and lonely without you on stage
From the inside, it’s hard to move on gracefully
Could You get rid of my sin of loving you so easily?
I don’t know exactly what you put me through
But, you made me feel numb inside
Oh, it’s probably the ridiculous things you do
That once hurt me, now I simply hide
I don’t know exactly what you put me through
But, you made me feel high with pride
Oh, it’s probably the stupid things we did in our youth too
That once healed me from the inside
All my life, I’ve dealt with this strife
You cut me like a knife as you live your life
Without me in your presence — it’s unbearable —
Was I ever significant in your eyes?
Without you, I’m feeling extremely uncherishable
Tell me right this instant without lies
I ask God for merciful deliverance as He is able…
For I lived this life from the inside, looking in, so unstable
Unable to figure myself out of this ribcage
I felt frightened and lonely without you on stage
From the inside, it’s hard to move on gracefully
Could You get rid of my sin of loving you so easily?
I don’t know exactly what you put me through
But, you made me feel numb inside
Oh, it’s probably the ridiculous things you do
That once hurt me, now I simply hide
I don’t know exactly what you put me through
But, you made me feel high with pride
Oh, it’s probably the stupid things we did in our youth too
That once healed me from the inside
We have been together forever in this bitter hardship
We have been never forever lasted in this friendship
I pout and I cry for a way to fly away
From the inside, looking out
I scream aloud to be with you this May
To bulldoze this feeling of doubt
So, I shout to God both night and day
We were two peas in a pod
I find it odd it wasn’t meant to be
Maybe, if I pray to God,
I’d know why you’re not with me
