Nowhere to Run, Nowhere to Hide
By: Monica Strihavka
Okay, well this is one song that I wrote a few years ago, so please don't laugh! It's about my mother...and it's fairly dark and freaky I guess. I don't feel this way anymore, it was just a moment of anger....so don't think that I'm gonna kill myself or anyhing....hmm...maybe I should take this song off...I think it will give you people the wrong impression about me.
Everyone knows me as a happy girl
A perfect family, no problems in the world
But no one knows the real truth about me
About everything that has happened to me

My mom's a drunk and having an affair
My dad's a gambler and doesn't seem to care
Ongoing fights snad scars taht never heal
There isn't a word that could describe exactly how I feel

Chorus
Nowhere to run
Nowhere tohide
I feel so helpless
I feel like I've died
What can I do
When I'm so confused
And feel so abused

Had thoughts about ending it all
Just couldn't find a reason to live anymore
The only thing that kept me going
Was a hope for a better life and knowing
That someday I'll be far away from here

I wish I had someone to hold me
Someone to tell me everything's going to be alright
Someone to wipe the tears from my eyes
Someone who loves me no matter what

Chorus

It's hard to express these feelings to anyone
So I'm writing it all in this sad song
Whoever hears this will open a window to my soul
Exposing a part of me that no one knows
The part that's shielded by painful walls

Uncover the feelings behind the outer core
So then there wouldn't be anything to hide anymore
But right now I'm still that lonely soul
With nowhere to hide and nowhere to go
