Let Me In

I sit and watch you
And wonder what’s going on
Inside your head

You’re a hard person to be with
Your mood changes so dramatically
One minute you are up, the next you are down

I’m frightened to be near you sometimes
Because I never know how’ll you react
And I’m scared I’ll say the wrong thing

It upsets me to see you like this
I just want to see you smile
But it’s like you’ve forgotten how

I thought we could be friends
But I guess I was wrong
But I won’t stop trying

I thought we could be friends
But you won’t let me in
Don’t shut me out, Please
