We are dying to ourselves Our past has paved the way The experiences shaped us Sometimes got in our way The surroundings opened or closed us The longings tore our hearts The not belonging fraught us Told us we should part We are dying to ourselves The ones we thought we were The ones we thought we had to be Which shaped our darkly lair We are throwing away the old Tearing it at the seems We are observing past patterns and pulling out the guillotine We are dying to ourselves who we once were who we believed and deemed The breaking down is painful but so has the images and beliefs we have seen How do we become now How do we begin We start from what we love The heart and souls dream We build The dream team
