Living In Between

Preservation And Restoration

Hiding in the open,

Headphones in my ears

Interaction avoid

Body language is clear

Don’t want to accidentally meet

The consequence, controls fear

The ploys to keep you from me

Refuse to waste one more tear

Cause it’s addictive when you to think

That something about you, might matter

the loudest words, when they leave

And in your soul, hear the laughter

So you keep yourself locked down

Living like a prisoner of war

Avoid looking like a clown

Convinced you don’t need love no more

Freedom pinned on the wall

Flight is now, just a dream

Preservation is all

Living somewhere in between
