Part of Me

I’ve looked in each direction 

Struggling to find my own way 

I’ve sought absolute perfection 

While hoping for an escape

Part of me 

Waiting for you to find me 

But wondering 

What would you say 

Would I want you to see me 

This way 

I’ve seen through condescending eyes

And I’ve spoken as though I knew it all 

But I’ve cried from the depths of my confusion 

And I’ve felt incredibly unimportant and small 

Part of me 

Waiting for you to pick me up 

From the ground

Scold and smile knowingly 

But reality reveals 

I am falling 

Far too willingly 

Falling slowly to my knees 

When will my heart be released 

Though I know you’re inside of me 

How my heart keeps wandering 

Here 

So alone 

Feeling so alone 

Part of me 

Waiting for you to find me 

But wondering 

What would you say 

Would I want you to see me 

This way
