Free
Free
When it all fades to black, what will I feel?
Will I finally be able to let my heart reveal
The joy which was once burrowed inside
What will happen when I die?
With my last heartbeat, will I finally be free?
Will my last breathe strip away the pain and anxiety?
Will all that once held me back before

When it’s quiet, without a sound
From the darkness does arouse
The silent whispers of defeat

Caged
CAGED
The pain within too much to bear
Searching for hope but it’s never there
How long can one hold on before
