Shelter - Olivia Chaney

Everyone rallied round to help me dream

But when I came to that place I did not feel

The way I was supposed to

Things, it seems, that others do

So here I am, free from distraction

Beauty, fear, at my disposal

But I dismiss each kernel as

A start I cannot finish

Give me warmth, give me shelter

Give me food, bring me water

But till I come to befriend and face

The demons do persist

When did grand and insecure

Gain back ground battled from my core

And now I find they dwell again

Grown strong and unfaithful

Give me warmth, give me shelter

Give me food, bring me water

But till I come

To befriend and face

The demons… do persist
