The world around me spins out of control in a haze,
The people.. their masks are slowly peeling off as I try to catch their averted gaze.
I have fallen, my wings have been clipped
I try to stand up but I crash back down again into the pit.
The abyss surrounds me, the darkness grows
But the pain, I hide it and no one ever knows.
I am pushing hard, as hard as can be
But the walls are closing in and suffocating me.
The silence becomes louder and I can't bear the noise,
The waves are crashing harder and I don't have a choice.
I look at you but you turn away,
You promised that you'd always hold me, that you would always be there.
I have lost my faith and my identity,
I had it all but now no one believes in me.
But I will not fail, I will not fall,
I push against my bindings; I'm going to shatter them all
As the morning comes, my wings shall heal,
I will spread them once again and the world will resound with my victorious scream.
No more tears, no more sleepless nights,
I am awake and I soar towards eternal light.
