Shelter - Mindset

All this steel, glass and stone…

My head is the only place I’ve ever felt at home

Where do I want to be?

A familiar place

What do I want to see?

Your eyes look right through me

Your words fail to move me

I wear this pain like a second skin

I’m outside looking in

I’m not afraid to say I’ve been afraid

I’m not ashamed to say that I’ve prayed

When no one listened

All this steel, glass and stone…

My head is the only place I’ve ever felt at home

Where do I want to be?

A familiar place

What do I want to see?

A familiar face

Give me shelter…

I need shelter…

From myself.
