waiting for my train

There’s this feeling I know
waiting outside my door,
And there’s no window, I’m trapped
Akin to missing the last train home
I have no idea how I’m going to get back
i can’t stand it
That sinking feeling as it pulls away
I don’t want to feel like this again
Stranded
People tell me to look up cuz
Now nothing holds me back
From getting lost in the world
But I don’t want to do that
They say its exciting to be a nomad
I find no joy in the constant trek
Help me find the road I know
The four walls I respect.
The windows I have grown to love
The shingles shelter from above
Take me to the fireplace I dream of
Tell me there’s another train
Cause any other thing you say
I won’t be able to take
Bother my door no more
I don’t want to know you
Please don’t pursue me or intrude
I find you entirely too rude
Let me be,
I’m waiting for my train
