Dark Room

I’m not here
To be your musical box
Please don’t wind me up
Or ask to play for you
Cause that is not what I do

In my mirror
I see some one I don’t know
There’s a stranger there
Someone that I once knew
Where did that young boy go to?

I go with you sometimes
Just to get you to stay

In a dark room
Thousands of people cannot stare
In my dark room
You can not find me
Cause I’m not there

In my dark room
I can hide up
I can take time thinking clearly
In my safe room
A quiet warm room
Where I can stay

Let me be
I need some time all alone
There’s no space for me here
No help to make me feel strong
I need a place on my own

In my dark room
I’m left with nothing but thoughts
There’s no pressure here
So I can now think things out
It’s so clear to me why

I think of you sometimes
Just not in that way

In a dark room
Thousands of people cannot stare
In my dark room
You can not find me
Cause I’m not there

In my dark room
I can hide up
I can take time thinking clearly
In my safe room
A quiet warm room
Where I can stay

Take me away
Take me away
Let me be
It’s a place where I feel free
Na na, na na…..
