My tower

Ah to be safe again

To be happy again

To be myself again

Oh how I miss the days of old

When words were simple 

And school was unheard of

I want to go back to days

of dresses and innocent beings

But instead I'm locked away in my tower

To fend for myself 

And protect my mind

She walked away

He ran away

You never even looked back

My friends have forsaken me

My love has forgotten me

Ah to be safe again

To be happy again

To be myself again

But that can never happen

It's strange, when we were kids growing up under the saftey net of our parents all we wanted was to grow up and be on our own. Once that happened we realized, it's not so easy being responsible for yourself. That safety net is gone and I have to "fend for myself."
