Hidden

Happy hidden in the shadows once the light went out
Happy hidden here in darkness away from all the doubt
Happy with the fortress that I built around myself
Happy to be left like the last item on the shelf

Why did you take me out the shadows?
What's it all about?
Why did you light the darkness, just to leave me here without?
Why did you climb the fortress, for my trust to be abused?
Why did you take me off the shelf, to leave me so confused?

Asking many questions yet the answers never come
Telling our life stories now I just feel fucking numb
Asking many questions yet the answers could be lies
Told you many times I was scared to try

Happy on my island I discovered all alone
Happy in my kingdom that I made all on my own
Happy in a routine where I tackle every day
Happy when there's no one standing in my fucking way

Of all the many islands why did you trespass upon mine?
Of all the many kingdoms why did you cross my line?
Messing up the routine why monopolise my days?
Why talk about the long-haul when it's just a passing phase?

No more asking questions as the answers never come
No more telling of life stories as I just feel fucking dumb
No more asking questions, just a pointless exercise
No more conversation, all my feelings left to die
