I Can Barely Say

I said I told you everything

But I left something out

Underneath the stairwell

And I'm under lock and key

But you can probably tell

A powder keg in a prison cell

I want to return

But all you would do is turn to leave

If I can find my way home

Will you take hold of me

I been gone so long

I can barely say

All I know is now I want to stay

Has it been too long

Since I went away

'Cause I'm trying to find the words

But I can barely say

I used to be the son

Waiting silently

But they barely noticed me

And I been talking in my sleep

If anybody sees

They'll turn and they'll run from me

I want to return

But all you would do is turn to leave

If I can find my way home

Will you take hold of me

I been gone so long

I can barely say

All I know is now I want to stay

Has it been too long

Since I went away

'Cause I'm trying to find the words

But I can barely say

I wanted to run

I wanted to love and be loved in return

But will I ever get back

Do I know too much to return

I been gone so long

I can barely say

AlI know is now I want to stay

Has it been too long

Since I went away

'Cause I'm trying to find the words

But I can barely say
