Tonight
Tonight I don't even want to runaway
Because I know as soon as I do
Reality snatches me back
Leaving me livid
With starches of tough love
Telling me I'm not allowed to go
Putting me back where I started
So tonight I stay
I don't want sleep
I don't wanna run
I'm only static
This is where you see me right
A perfectly imperfect statue
All of what should be
Tonight I'm stone
Cold to feelings
Etched in lamentation
Inside I weep
The statue stayed
But what was me left
Long gone some place else
So tonight I stay
That statue in picturesque place
