I Wanna Be Small Lyrics

I want to be small

About two inches tall

Then maybe I'll stop taking so much space

In your bed and in your head

Used for everything I knew

Keeping things going just right

So you stop worrying if I'm

Sane

I'm balancing my heart on all my words

Hoping one day I might find the ones to say to you

To help you understand why I suffer with these wounds

All alone

In a sea of 18 people in this home

Finding reasons that will show them I should go

They're always wanting someone new

Will I ever be enough? or will they

Always want others in my

Space?

Everywhere I go

I've never had

A place to call my own

Do I belong?

I don't belong

All this compromise

Never meets my needs

I don't belong

Why do you treat me

Like I deserve

To share your space?

Forcing myself out of the party

I missed the cue

That said"invited"

Sorry, that's a lie

They saw and decided

I wasn't for them

My arms may take away my pain

But they're so sore

Calloused over twice as strong as before

None of this is on you, it's on me

Now all I can do is

Write

And hope my words will serve my feelings right

After all, losing my space is such a rite

Of passage through

This hell

I call my life
