People

by morgan   May 31, 2004


People wonder why i push them away,
people wonder why i act this way.

it could be all the hurt I've fallen into,
or what people have put me through.

maybe I'm too scared to get too close,
but thats not my fault, this isn't the life i chose.

i take one step forward, then two steps back,
then the new life I've started again falls off track.

sometimes i wish i could go back and fix whats been done,
and other times i wish none of this had ever begun.

most of my feelings come from the secrets of my past,
everyday i wonder how long they will last.

there are things i wanna do, but i am to scared,
i guess i wouldn't be this way if someone would have cared.

if the people all around me could only read my mind,
they would understand, and myself, i wouldn't have to find.
