Child

I am waiting, wait for calm
Wait for eyes to fall upon me
Voice rings out

The jury's out on how long this will take me
Step back for reason, a shelter from nothing
Daughter of disorder, it's just another drop in the water

See me safe in the corner
Same child that stepped out of order

Hand is up, don't speak up
Can't you feel the temperature rising
Don't you know, there's always fear
There's always fear of something
Step back for reason, a shelter from nothing
Daughter of disorder, it's just another drop in the water

See me safe in the corner
Same child that stepped out of order

It's quiet now, the light seeps out
Open mouth, no sound comes out
A scratch in our throats is a scream for attention
Can you hear my ignorance, do you miss my confidence
Ghost of a shell of a girl that once was

See me safe in the corner
Same child that stepped out of order
See me safe in the corner
Same child that stepped out of order

See me safe in the corner
Same child that stepped out of order
