Integrating Inner Child

You can keep him outta sight
At least that's what I told myself
And I never felt so bold
So that story's locked away untold
Please rescue me

There goes everything it stays ringing inside my head
Endless waves of memories they never leave
They never would they never could
It feels unfair
Feeling hard for me to bare
Stay away from here my dear
Don't see this part of me
You can walk away and turn a-round
You'd leave a hole I'd never fill with anyone
Know no one will suffice except for you
Child in me be gone
The darkness of the shadows lurking in my house
Rescue my ghost from this

I'm hypnotized by this light inside of me
Tell me where it's from I can't see
I ask myself "who is speaking?"
A tiny voice screams back "it's me!"
Now I wonder if he's always by my side
Can I make it with him in my mind

If you'd seen what I've done
And knew the things I've thought
You would think twice about us
I'm not always proud but I did what I could
I only hoped the feeling wouldn't change
A pathetic symphony of strings made out of sinew
My heart stretched taught across a drum
Hear me play them now for you
An orchestral apology
Will you?

When the worlds around me still
And the shadows take a bended knee
As my story comes to close
At least I know that I can go
