Until Then (Poem of My Life)
How can you understand it if you've never been in it
How can you judge it if you've never known it
When you come to that place
I won’t say I told you so
I won’t say don't you come running to me
I will say don't look to me
I will say that this is what it takes
But until you've been there
Until you know it from the inside out
Not from the outside looking in with eyes that don't see
Not till then will you truly get it
Until then you can only assume you get it
Until then you can only think you know better
But I don't hear you
I will not let you turn me
I will not stand with you
I'm walking
I'm running
I'm chasing a greater ending
You're welcome to run with me
If you judge me I say you never knew me
If you look down at me I say you've never been there
If you turn you're back on me I will still welcome you back when you see
I won’t deny this, I can't
This is what makes me
This is what's changing me
This is my atmosphere
This is my life
