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.
