Get out of here, you evil ghosts.
You hide within me, telling me dark lies.
You make me fear the unknown,
Despair over the simplest of things.

You dark spirits, you hold me back.
My full potential hidden,
Within the darkness you fill me with.
Lost without the light you've taken.

Fear; you seep into my heart,
Clog up my mind,
So that I cannot think clearly,
Make decisions freely.

Where is my strength when needed most?
Where is the boldness that I used to hold?

All I see around me is grey.
An endless haze covers my eyes.
I don’t know where to go,
So I'm left turning circles.

Numbness pours into my bones,
Sleep completely evades me
So that there is no escaping
These endless tunnels in my mind.

Haunted; the life has left my eyes.
The darkness seeps in,
Leaving me completely blind;
There’s no where left to hide.

A Shoulder to cry on,
Open arms to run too,
This is someone
Who truly loves you.
They might be a stranger,
But they'll always care;
Standing by your side,
No matter how they fair.

Weakest one, innocent soul,
I will keep you safe,
Try to keep you whole.
Hide your heart,
So as not to break,
Life as you know,
One can easily take.

Fighting the war
So you would not have to.
Fire in their eyes,
Mud on their shoes;
They are soldiers,
Who are struggling for you.

*Remember this, my dear,
You are not alone,
There is nothing to fear.
Keep your eyes bright,
So that you can see,
The beautiful sight
Of how the world could be.

I sit here waiting, biding my time
Hoping and wishing
That my chance won’t pass me by
To take hold of my destiny
To escape this prison of mine

Just waiting for the time to pass
The fortune to change
To take my chance
And leave this place

I’m stuck in a small world
Where everyone knows everyone
Yet, in my small world
They all watch you, they judge you
I seek the freedom of the real world
The one where I can find who I’m meant to be
Just can’t wait to escape this small world.

Can’t wait till I’m free
When I can fly on my own
Without a thought or a worry
Of what someone else
Might think of me

I long to escape to run free
With no more eyes watching me
Judging me, no more images
Of what they measure me to be

I’m stuck in a small world
Where everyone knows everyone
Yet, in my small world
They all watch you, they judge you
I seek the freedom of the real world
The one where I can find who I'm meant to be
Just can’t wait to escape this small world.

No more images of what they measure me to be
I’ll no longer be stuck in my small world
I’ll spread my wings and be free
Saying goodbye to my small world
