Wondering Maze
It's mind over matter in this significant class
Running and escaping from this over-powering blast
turning to the familiar faces that I see
I feel like everyone is trying to hurt me
What is it that everyone else can see?
Why is everyone trying to take him from me?
Does everyone want me gone this bad?
Why whenever I leave, will everyone be glad?
I haven't found a solution to everyone's problems yet
What requirements have I not met?
I stay true and real for that's all it really takes
But why is everyone trying to revoke my place?
What are the true thoughts in his mind?
Were am I so naive and blind?
I feel like I'm losing this great, giant task
Where am I wearing a mask?
Where am I wrong in some kind of place?
Has this time we spent we spent been just a waste?
How do I understand something not explained?
How do I tame a raging tiger who does not want to be tamed?
I'm gasping for air ~ I can't breathe at all
The price I pay for making that fall
My heart can only take so much
Days have been cold and numbered ~ without his familiar touch
Running in circles trying to see his ways
Nights grow shorter with longer days
Realizing that I can't win back what it used to be
I can't prove to anyone to see what I see
Dazed and confused I long for the next day
Everyone I've ever loved, just doesn't want to stay
I wish I could give him exactly what he needs
Crying out his name as my heart just bleeds
No way of remembering his touch
I wonder if we've hurt each other too much?
Please tell me at this point what I can do
To banish my long days from being so blue
I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong
Before we can't hold up this relationship for long
Without the team on the exact same page
We're lost within each other ~ wandering this maze...
