Doubts, doubts, doubts all over my black mind
Faster, faster, faster I run from them
Yet, they come closer like Fate
Drums, drums, drums beat in the background
Tribals dance to the tune – mockery of civilization.
Peace, peace, peace is all I crave
Yet, my mind takes me where my nightmares lie
Slipping, slipping, slipping till I wake up
Cold, cold, cold sweat on my furrowed brows
The dungeon of Hell hath opened their jaws.
Warm, warm, warm is the sunshine I feel on my face
Cool, cool, cool is the water gushing over my hands
Yet, dark and lifeless is my heart
Feel, feel, feel I tell myself
Doom has fixed its shackles on me like a caged animal.
I feel the need to fly, to fly
Fly, fly, fly away I tell the wings
Rise, rise, rise and soar above the darkness
Where the sun shines into the heart
Fall, fall, fall like a bird with molten wings.
Cry, cry, cry like a gurgling brook
Uninhibited by paltry rocks, egged on by soothing winds
Dry, dry, dry my eyes are like the burning desert
Cold, cold, cold my heart is when I long for warmth
Neither books nor words soothe me; in pain I burn.
Pop, pop, pop burst the bubbles of unspoken words,
Unheeded emotions, unloved love, virgin words
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh the tips of wings flatter my face
Birds I let free have returned to their nests
Snap, snap, snap my heart breaks into smaller pieces.
Free, free, free like a bird, like a woman in love
Freedom is what sets you free
Love, love, love is what keeps you bound
Break, break, break all boundaries, and let the birds fly
They will return, yet, nothing will be the same.
Look, look, look till my eyes bleed, no difference
Free, free, free the birds are, will always be
Never, never, never will the same my heart be
Winds shall call, the sun shall shine, and the moon will still be beautiful
Yet, my heart has broken too many times, never to change?
