Creekside Train - September

I thought you were the monster

that was hiding underneath my bed

believed in you

you didn’t need to hide from me

because you were there

right in front of me

scarring me with insecurities

passed down from past generations

teaching me lies that I never wanted

I never wanted to be your son

just because you gave me life

does not mean you have to be part of it

searching

running

digging

I am

running

I am

you are the monster

hold on to nothing

there is a way

I’ve found my way

I am not lost

and now that I’ve found my way

I can be free

help me

who am I

I am on the path so give me the power

I am not lost like you told me

it’s the soil in you

I was your son

who am I now
