The Change

On the fence

Wanting to resist

What I know will assist

And help to bear the weight

Under pressure

To keep it all together

Don’t know if I can weather

This climate or the rain

You don’t own me

I won’t fight this anymore

And I just can’t keep on running,

Hoping, praying, waiting for the change

Overthinking

I’m dancing on the brink and

This song just keeps repeating

I’m beginning to become

Apathetic

I’ve learned to love the static

I’m much more sympathetic

To the things that make me numb

You don’t own me

I won’t fake this anymore

And I just can’t keep on running

Hoping, praying, waiting for the change

Can I lose this

If not, I need you to prove it

Before I choose to do it

And concede to guilt and shame

This crazy and this genius they are one and the same

You don’t own me

I won’t take this anymore

And I just can’t keep running, Hoping, praying, debating, waiting for the change
