If This Is Not The Place

If this is not a place where tears are understood, then where shall I go to cry?

If this is not a place where my spirit can take wings, then where shall I go to fly?

I don't need another place for trying to impress you with just how good and virtuous I am.

I don't need another place for always being on top of things, everyone knows that it's a sham.

I don't need another place for always wearing smiles, even when it's not the way I feel.

I don't need another place to mouth the same old platitudes, everybody knows that it's not real.

So, if this is not a place where my questions can be asked, then where shall I go to seek?

And if this is not a place where my heart cry can be heard, where, tell me where shall I go to speak?

If this is not a place where tears are understood, WHERE, OH WHERE, SHALL I GO?
