Little blocks we stacked up when we were children. Little hands that trembled every time a loud bang was made. Little by little A dream gets stacked, A love gets bound, A heart is bounced. Little by little A dream crumbles, A love becomes hate, A heart turns to stone. Little by little A child is made, A laugh decreases, A nightmare is made. Little by little The darkness exceeds, The numbness lives free, The void is sought. Little by little The memories become a dream, The sleep comes once a week, The eyes start to bleed. Little by little A recollection is made, From the last mistakes, The redness it made. Little by little A child has grown, really fast, really mature. Little by little, The only dream that a child sought. liberation or recollection?

"LITTLE BY LITTLE"
Little blocks we stacked up when we were children. Little hands that trembled every time a loud bang was made. Little by little A dream gets stacked, A love gets bound, A heart is bounced. Little by little A dream crumbles, A love becomes hate, A heart turns to stone. Little by little A child is made, A laugh decreases, A nightmare is made. Little by little The darkness exceeds, The numbness lives free, The void is sought. Little by little The memories become a dream, The sleep comes once a week, The eyes start to bleed. Little by little A recollection is made, From the last mistakes, The redness it made. Little by little A child has grown, really fast, really mature. Little by little, The only dream that a child sought. liberation or recollection?
