All I ever wanted to feel 

was safe

 

So I attached myself to things 

Greater than myself 

 

And I failed as dreams 

Kept me awake

 

I started living my life twice

Once for me and then for my fears

 

I thought I was being generous

With myself and my time 

 

And that feeling of feeling safe

Slipped away

 

Leaving me  to face

My dreams alone
