Cortland

Scared to go out into the air
Alone in what's out there
Keeping it all inside
So far behind
Never was good at reaching out
The friends you've talked about
Leading a different life
Never one to pry

You never want to be
Any less than what they need
But now your outside voice
Is closing up tightly
Everyone wants to seem
Like they're full of self esteem
And any unsure thought
Untrue and unsightly

All of the people having fun
It breaks your heart and stops
All of the colors run
To a different clock
Selling it off at such a steal
And pricing down those deals
Trying to get away
Toward a different day

You never want to be
Any less than what they need
But now your outside voice
Is closing up tightly
Everyone wants to seem
Like they're full of self esteem
And any unsure thought
Untrue and unsightly
