I Don't Belong Here

There’s a beast lying low in the weeds

There's a promise that I’d like to keep

Inching closer with eyes set on me

There’s a halo of hurt around my head

Keeps my chin pinned real deep in my chest

Beneath a large woven web when I rest

With far too much dread for some feathers to catch

I don’t belong here was all that I said

Spiraling downward, I was out of my head

I’d never hurt you if left with a choice

But something’s been aching for most of my life

There’s a wholе lot I’ve buried below

You only know what I want you to know

Mostly I usе you to lessen the load

All I do is take

I don’t belong here was all that I said

Spiraling downward, I was out of my head

I’d never hurt you if left with a choice

But something’s been aching for most of my life

Sleeping in a coffin

Trying to get to heaven

Drown in holy water

Again and again

Dwindled little spirit

Narrowed down to nothing

Just above the surface

Just as the tide’s rolling in
