My Inclination

There's something I need to confess
At the risk of exposing my faults
But I'm starting to find that most of the time
I just don't like people at all.
When I saw you five minutes ago
I was afraid you might talk off my ear.
I panicked inside and decided to hide
And that's how I ended up here...

Crouching behind the live lobster tank
Hoping you'd just pass me by, oh...

That's how I ended up here.
That's how I ended up here.

Oh how I wish I could say
It's my first time to hide in this spot
But with all of the people I try to avoid
I find myself down here a lot.
I mean, just look at these guys in the tank
With the red rubber bands 'round their arms.
If they don't open up
And just keep to themselves
They won't do anyone harm.

So I screen my calls, don't answer the doors
Sometimes I wish I could disappear, oh...

That's how I ended up here.
That's how I ended up...

Building a wall so that no one could bother me
Living my life in isolation
Opening up to only those close to me
Nobody's close to me, what have I done?

See, I really want to be known
But I'm not quite as strong as the fear
That you won't understand the fool that I am

And that's how I ended up here
That's how I ended up here...
That's how I ended up here.

How I Ended Up Here, Jason Gray

Lord, please don't let me end up there.
