Inside (The Corrections)

Why are you always correcting me
Was it something I said
When I was on your knee
I try to be calm
While the ocean is rough
I’ll stay up on the deck
And play some cards
Finding that door was the answer for me
Could you cover up my feelings
While I’m out at sea
Try to be wise, independent and tough
But I secretly collapse
Now I’ve had enough
It’s alright
Here we are
Inside
It’s alright
Here we are
Inside
It came to while I was dreaming at night
I’m just living a correction of your life
No matter how heartless and hard it seems
There is always a child inside the machine
It’s alright
Here we are
Inside
It’s alright
Here we are
Inside
It’s alright
Here we are
Inside
Why are you always correcting me
Was it something I said
When I was on your knee
I try to be calm
While the ocean is rough
I’ll stay up on the deck
And play some cards
