Slipping back into my shell
Hiding myself from the world...

Reaching out with trembling hand
Pulling it back for fear of rejection...

Gimme that back beat boys
Let momma sing it out...

Waking
Opening an eye...

I've held it back for far too long
Kept it hidden...

Soft wind blowing my hair
I brush it from my face...

I come to you baring my soul
Looking up at you with my tear stained face...

Rockin you gently
Singin softly...

Girl you gonna die with a needle in your arm
Beggin the good lord to take you home...

Seemingly laughing and smiling eyes of blue
Deep with in them lies a pain so sharp it can...
