Standing alone in a corner, finding the punishment justified

Needing to feel their disappointment, to let me know I am alive

Because I have learned that negative attention Is better than silence at the dinner table.

An unstable fuel that always came through, to let me know I have failed

I am feeling unsatisfied and afraid

Will I find safety in these lonely days?

Looking back I find cracking foundations, where childhood memories rest

And when that angry voice strikes my ear, I will finally be put to the test.

Do I need the fire to keep me going or can I do it on my own?

Now I have shown a tear, reality is near a place to call my home.

I am feeling unsatisfied and afraid will I find safety in these lonely days?

Is there strength to be found in memories left behind?

Times have changed I found me to blame and wounds will heal with time

Let the past go
