Anywhere But Here

 
I find myself  
in a tug o' war  
for my affections and loyalty  
 
my man and stepson  
at odds with each other  
throwing hate and accusations  
 
I'm afraid this is getting ugly  
knowing their tempers could get dangerous  
in a real and lethal way
 
I want out, I want the fuck out  
I'm tired in the way weary souls get  
the way a loving mamma gets  
 
you wonder why my mind so often turns to you  
it's the sea, the ocean that beckons me  
the freedom and tranquility of it  
 
not to mention your boyish good looks  
your charming turn of phrase  
I'm used to crass bullshit  
 
I want a simpler life  
full of refinement  
though I know I wouldn't fit  
 
a girl can dream  
of being anywhere  
anywhere but here
