Peace with myself
I felt a shiver earlier today
Lately those shivers have been around me, always
Not always in the night, have I felt the touch on me
Who is watching and who's not letting me be?
Here in this moment, I'm here by myself
I'm gonna cry with no one else near
This is so constant, I need to hide from thee
It's always a moment, when I'm here by myself
I'm always touching you, you’ve got nerves of steel
Get up, my scared little girl, yell out, but please don't scream
And stop looking about, as if someone’s about to harm you
Scared for your life, as it stays along side you
Here in this moment, you're all by yourself
Your gonna cry all by yourself
I'm so constant, you need to hide from me
It's always a moment, you're all by yourself
Times are a changing, under my rules and conditions
Seems like I'm winning, everyday from here on
And the respect I've been looking for, has been given back to me
Here in this moment, I'm with only oneself
I'm not going to cry, without anyone else
This isn't constant now, so I don't need to hide from thee
It's always a great moment, when I'm at peace with myself.
