That Inner Voice

Of course you wouldn't know me

I'm the voice that is always here

I'm the one that whispers in silence

Yet the words I say are quite clear

Not many heed the words I say

As if I would steer them wrong

I just thought you were different

Since we've been together so long

I learned your moves before you thought

I saw those items you should have bought

I waited with tassels the days you fled

I kept record every word you shouldn't have said

Although I still had hope for you

As I watched this boy become a man

Even though no body knew that inside

The pain that's stayed since reality began

I was the guide through that pain

A guide that you could not see

I will always be here, if you'll listen

Your future depends on me
