let me in
Kristine W Lyrics

You talk about love
You mention love as if it’s an easy thing, but I know love is something that takes effort and isn’t just handed to us.

I know about love
I’ve experienced love and understand it isn’t something that is always easy or perfect.

It don't grow on trees
Love isn’t something that can be easily found and isn’t just something you can pick off a tree.

When the stars shine on me
Even when things seem great and the stars are shining down on me, I still know the true struggles that come with love.

They shine sadly
The stars may seem to shine down on me, but it doesn’t change the sadness that comes with love.

You talk about home
You talk about home as if it’s a physical place, but I know home is more than just bricks and stones.

This is my home
I may not have a physical place to call home, but I know what it means to feel at home somewhere.

There's no bricks, no stone
Home isn’t about physical objects, but rather the feeling of safety and comfort that comes with it.

When the wind comes calling 'round
Even when things get tough and the winds of change come, I still want to feel at home somewhere.

Who's to shelter me?
When things get tough, I have no one to turn to for shelter or protection.

Don't talk about home
Talking about home just reminds me of what I don’t have and makes it harder.

And I don't know why
I’m confused and can’t understand why I feel so disconnected from everyone and everything.

I'm standing on the outside and I'm looking in
I feel like I’m on the outside of everything, looking in on everyone else’s lives.

And how hard I try to be there,
Even when I try my hardest to join in on the fun and be a part of things, I still feel disconnected.

Out of the dark and joining in,
I want to be a part of things and join in the light instead of feeling left in the dark.

Let me in
I want to be included and feel like I belong somewhere.

Because Larry's gonna be there
I know Larry will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Mary's gonna be there
I know Mary will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Everyone will be there
Everyone else will be a part of what’s happening, and I want to be included too.

Man I want to be there
I want to be included and not left on the outside looking in.

Joe is gonna be there
I know Joe will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Susan's gonna be there
I know Susan will be somewhere I want to be included in.

So let me in
I want to be a part of things and feel like I belong somewhere.

You talk about loss
You mention loss as if it’s something small, but I know what it truly means to lose something.

I know about loss
I’ve experienced loss and know how hard it can be to deal with.

I don't have much
I don’t have much in terms of material possessions.

But those who have more
Those who have more may not understand my struggles or hardships.

Think that I've got enough
Even though I don’t have much, those who have more believe I’m still okay.

You talk about me
You talk about me and my life as if it’s something that can be easily summed up and understood.

Enough about me
I don’t want to talk about my life because it’s complex and can’t be easily understood.

'Cause I'll disappear like a child in the crowd
I feel like I’m easily overlooked and ignored, like a child in a crowd of people.

You won't notice that I'm not here
Even if I’m not around, I feel like I’m easily forgotten and not missed.

And I don't know why
I’m still confused and don’t understand why I feel the way I do.

And how hard I try to be there,
Even when I try my hardest to be a part of things and be noticed, I still feel overlooked.

So let's not talk about me
I don’t want to talk about my struggles or complicated life because it’s hard to understand or relate to.

Because Sara's gonna be there
I know Sara will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Mel is gonna be there
I know Mel will be somewhere I want to be included in.

David's gonna be there
I know David will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Oh, I gotta be there
I really want to be included and don’t want to be left out.

Dorothy's gonna be there
I know Dorothy will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Martin's gonna be there
I know Martin will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Seymour's gonna be there
I know Seymour will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Ann is gonna there
I know Ann will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Vince is gonna be there
I know Vince will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Tony's gonna be there
I know Tony will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Pam is gonna be there
I know Pam will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Jack is gonna be there
I know Jack will be somewhere I want to be included in.

Everyone will be there
Everyone else will be there, so I want to be there too.

So let me in
I want to be a part of things and feel like I belong somewhere.

And I don't know why
I’m still confused and don’t understand why I feel the way I do.

I'm standing on the outside
I feel like I’m on the outside looking in.
