I want to be in a place
Where nobody knows my name
Where birds sing
Bees buzz
Trees fall
But I can’t hear
The echoes they make
I want to be in a place
By myself
With myself
Because that’s what I know
Who I know
Loneliness
Where tears fall
And can only be dry by the sun
In an open desert
I want to be in a place
Where I can be
And I don’t have to run from myself
Cause that’s who I’m running from
I want to be in a place
And think happy thoughts
Cause for once
I need to be happy
I want to be in place
Where I am accepted
And not ridiculed
Or judge for being me
I want to be in a place
Cause I need to be in a place
My own place
