Insecurities

Held back by walls of security, that
I just could never see, held people at arms length
Devoid of human contact
Cannot express emotion
I try with all my strength
What is the matter with me?
It seems that no one cares
I’m blinded by my innocence
Will no one be there for me?
When I don’t understand
I need a guiding hand
Covered in blankets of imagination
Where I can’t talk to people without a second thought
What if they’re laughing at me
I know I’m not good enough so I won’t even try
What is the matter with me?
It seems that no one cares
I’m blinded by my innocence
Will no one be there for me?
When I don’t understand
Everything’s gonna be okay and I know
But it just doesn’t seem that way
Right around the corner there may be someone who cares
Everything’s gonna be alright and I know
But I wish it was tonight
Maybe I would sleep better at night if I knew somebody cared…
