My inner child weeps

My inner child weeps It weeps for who I've become I've become all the things I said I wouldn't And I've left hurt run me My inner child weeps, It weeps for this isn't the life I wanted A life of using people to get ahead For I know how being used hurts... My inner child weeps For all the promises I made to myself That I've broken already, so how do I expect people to keep the promises they kept with me My inner child weeps It weeps at how I've given up On many battles just because I was told While I was always steadfast, now I'm easily swayed My inner child weeps It weeps at how I'm washed up That's why I don't recognise myself Constantly needing people's affirmation My inner child weeps It weeps at my lost soul Cause I wonder this days While the path is right there I'm forging new ones.... My inner child weeps It weeps out to my soul To come back to me For I feel detached more than ever from God My inner child weeps It weeps at how sad I am Walking round with a heavy load Instead of entrusting it to God My inner child weeps It weeps for the lost love Of all the people I spent thinking off Forgetting that I need me first My inner child weeps It weeps for the people I've hurt As I tried to find my way through my mess It's made me cold, I don't even smile this days My inner child weeps It weeps because even though we got older We've not gotten over it We holding onto things we should have let go My inner child weeps It weeps for me For it senses I've given up And feels I'm too grown to listen to it The PO£T
