Difference

It may be a loss to set out all alone
But it feels good to get there on my own
Maybe I should listen, learn to watch my tone
I let another question, cut me to the bone
They tell me, how
That's not enough

I try to make a difference, but feel my will to leave
Setting in deeper, as I turn a leaf
I want to be kinder, give not to receive
But will I take it too far, and lose what's left of me?
They tell me why
Thats where to go

I try to warn them
Words are too harsh
When there's a loss, not a fault
It can take time to
Change our minds
Losing yourself one step at a time

Reaching for another, the comfort of relief
Learning to love my mask, each feels more like me
Settle in the quiet, note to hold my tongue
Chasing my thoughts back down, my will is left undone
Please tell me, when
To let them go

I try to warn them
Words are too harsh
When theres a loss, not a fault
It can take time to
Change our minds
Losing yourself one step at a time
