Needles & Pins

Scrape your knees on a familiar sidewalk
Count the leaves as you run to your old home
You can't go anywhere when you know that you will have to be alone
How can you set boundaries when
you can hardly take the time to set your bed
You can't stand needles or pins
But you let the fog get to your head
How can you say anything when you hardly know how to raise your voice
You can't hold everyone
It seems this time you won't have a choice
Scrape your knees on a familiar sidewalk
Count the leaves as you run to your old home
You can't go anywhere
And now you know you'll have to be alone
