[verse1] He should have come close But he was keeping his distance I looked at him with admiration Also just a bit of dissidence [verse2] I didn't think he was in my corner Because he had nothing to lose I had to do everything according to him It was not for me to choose [Bridge] Even as he began to speak I really didn't want to hear Because he was telling me It was time to leave here [Chorus] My emotions are empty They appear to be gone I can't commit to the conversation Because everything feels wrong He tried to encourage me That just made me loud I wasn't really his to command Maybe I was just too proud [verse3] I Told him I would go But was not going to stay My life was here with Christopher I had no more to say [verse4] I know you don't know him yet He began to tell me You will love him as much as Christopher That is what is to be [Bridge] I don't care about your context I don't want to know what you see clear I want you to get away from me Get the hell out of my year [Chorus] My emotions are empty They appear to be gone I can't commit to the conversation Because everything feels wrong He tried to encourage me That just made me loud I wasn't really his to command Maybe I was just too proud [verse5] The open door will then close And nothing can get through It will end in a reset That won't be good for you [verse6] I know you don't hear me true So why did I come here If I can't convince you That you go back to stay this year [Bridge] I'm not looking for permission I Began to tell him I don't need a mission I began to yell at him [Chorus] My emotions are wild They appear to be back I dismiss the conversation Because I am under attack You cannot encourage me That just makes me mad I not yours to command Maybe I was also sad [Outro] Maybe there's one thing I can say He then began to explain Everything you go through here I also carry that pain At this point I remember everything There's so much you can't see Maybe it's not what's best for you On That I may concede Our life is never our own We are owned by our care Willingly or unwillingly You will always end up here That's when I began to cry There's nothing more to be said I was ready to leave here So that we can end this moment of dread
