STUCK 3:28 (Mid to up-tempo-toe tapper, vocals, violin, guitar, piano, percussion) An introspective narrative welcoming peace in lieu of self-pity.
Lyrics
I was stuck sitting inside self pity in the heart of the city of woe is me
Peace came along saying you can be strong. Look inside and see
But I ran away saying that’s okay, I will see you another day
Too many things that I must do. Until then, there’s no time for you.
So I climbed a ladder and I scaled a wall
And I reached the top and I began to fall
I was losing power, I was losing steam
I was so unhappy, I had lost my dream
I was stuck sitting inside self pity in the heart of the city of woe is me
Peace came along saying you can be strong. Look inside and see
But I ran away saying that’s okay, I will see you another day
Too many things that I must do. Until then, there’s no time for you.
So I wrote a book and I sang a song
And I painted a picture but before too long
My thoughts ran dry and I started to cry,
“I’m stuck in the desert and I don’t know why.”
I was stuck sitting inside self pity in the heart of the city of woe is me
Peace came along saying you can be strong. Look inside and see
So I heaved a big sigh and I opened wide
And I let peace come inside.
And all at once I was feeling strong, time was sweet and life was long
There’s so many things that I’d like to do, but with peace inside they can all ring true.
So when you’re stuck sitting inside self pity in heart of the city of woe is me
When Peace comes along saying you can be strong, don’ t wait as long as me.
Look inside and see…
Look inside and see…
Look inside.
