I've spent so long
Trying to be so invisible
Perfecting my mask
So no one could see through
So tell me
How is it you see it all?
Am I so obvious?

But I want you to see
Everything
Because if you see
And you don't run
I'll feel so...
Happy?
But if you do run
I won't blame you
I know I would
If I could

But where
Would I run?
Where can I run away
From myself?
In my mind
I find myself running to you
Into your arms
Where I feel welcome
Accepted
Loved
And as strange as it may be,
Home

In the back of my mind
I'm always waiting
For the moment you'll get bored
Fed up
And walk away
From me
Because it will come
I know it will...

But until that moment,
I'll find all the comfort I can
In this temporary safe place
That I wish could last forever
