Trapped Inside The World

As the day begins to slow
And I wait for you to come home
From another week away
That's the working life, you always say

But it's hard to be a child when
The neighbourhood keeps changing its face
It's hard to start again
You know it's hard to find your place

It's the seventh school I'm in
And I'm learning to pretend
To care a little less
But I know, I know I still need to impress

I'm the youngest in my class again
Some things are always true

I'm trapped inside the world again
I need you to come through
I'm trapped inside the world again
I need you to come through

When the night begins to slow
When the shadows take their toll
There's a part of me that still waits
For you to come home again

But I remember that you left us here
Daddy, you know I do

But I'm trapped inside the world again
I need you to come through
I'm trapped inside the world again
I need you to come through
