What Stirs Inside

If you hide yourself inside
Because you think you are not worthy
You’re snuffing out a light
That someone’s searching for
And hurting

Don’t you believe that you’ve gotten better?
And can’t you see where you left your fetters?
These callous scars are not forever
But what you shine here is
The shadow behind you lives...

And I’m standing in a cave
Transfixed by all of the real you’re casting
But you’re lying to my face
Not sure what expression really grasps me

If I believed in just my memories
Then I’d be afraid that this were ending
But there’s a louder sound you’re sending
And I hope you hear it, too
What stirs inside of you....

I’d be your mouth
And I’d be your lungs
I’d do everything that you left undone
But then which one of us would have won?
I want it to be you
‘Cause then I would have won, too
