Liquid mercury running through my veins
Tearing my apart from the inside
Carbon monoxide in the air I breathe
Every breath hurts...
Trapped inside a prison of my own design
Locked behind bars of the ice in their eyes
And strangled to death by their whispered words
I gave them the keys to me freedom and they took it away from me
I don't think I can do this anymore...
Living...
Breathing...
Dying inside...
With no one to catch me
->As
->->I
->->->fall
So here I stand on the edge
Staring out at the horizon
With wind whipping my hair from my face
I wonder
If I stepped off
And spread my arms
Would I fly?
Like the birds and angels?
I can hear them shouting behind me
"You're safe," they cry
"Just come back and we'll help you"
But they're wrong
They're wrong!
I can't--
I can't go back--
There's no one...
nothing...
Nothing to go back to
Nothing to look forward to
Nothing to hold on to
->So
->->I just
->->->fall
"Poor kid," they say, shaking their heads
"Never had a chance"
I try to speak
But my words are stuck in my throat
They can't see me
But they never saw me
I'm as invisible in death as I was in life
They just shake their heads and cluck their tongues and walk away
Walk away from me and I
The me on the ground
The I staring down
I didn't fly
I never could
Hope alone can't carry someone up
Someone like me flying towards the heavens?
As if
->All I could do
->->was just
->->->fall
