Let Me In - Aaron Sprinkle

On my own volition

I pound my head against the wall

And I don’t hear it when you call

Tumbling down the stairway

I still try to make the phone

I call you back but your not home

Full of good intention

I read the paper to myself

I try to act like someone else

Barely past the headline

I still remember what you said

«I'll hold it in until I’m dead»

I best be getting on with this

But I can’t get you out my head

Ten times a day when I stop to pray

I ask that you would let me in

Beading on the window

The weather underneath my eyes

Is it rain or am I crying

T.V. in the distance

Am I awake or still asleep

I feel a hand against my cheek

Like every time before

I’ll sing a metaphor

To try to shed some light inside my mind

A lot of good that will do

I can’t get inside of you

To take back the back the past and make things new
