Safe for a While

Just something.

I stayed locked inside

For three long years

I didn't want to leave it

I had way too many fears

They made me feel uncomfortable

It felt like they just shut me out

But I finally had enough

Then it's my strength that I found

I walked into a world uknown

But I found my place right away

Ignoring is my way to get by

So that's what I did everyday

I stood in my place

And everything faded away

I wasn't afraid any more

I was left with clear skies; not gray

So right now, maybe I'm safe

For a while

But what happens...

When I'm done that while?

Or will it never end?

Since they can't bother me anymore

Maybe I'll find that key

And re-lock that door

With me on the outside

Enjoying my life

Because living isn't about

Being in pain and in strife

It's about being happy

Not always sad

But that's in the past now; I'll forget it

It's something I've never had

So hopefully I'll never say goodbye

I'll hear the raising of voices

But that's okay

Because now I got more choices

And maybe something

Will outshine my favorite song

Now that's unquestionable

It won't be long

And maybe I'll learn to walk on water

Since I'm safe for a while

Hey, I'll walk away

Keeping that same old smile
