I feel separated and far away.
I watch through a glass ball
And I guess that's all there is to say.
The gray clouds are a swirling mass.
And yet the eye of the storm is so far,
How many miles till we pass?
I am trapped in a cage
And it looks vaguely like a house,
A house set with fires that rage, rage.
My smile is a shield that protects you;
It protects from the ice of my heart.
Everything true is false and false true.
Or so he says
In his craze
And the years passed as days.
And I was the broken diamond
Left in the carnage
Where my beginning met my end.
BUT
I believe in strength
And that I have what it takes
And I have gone to every length
To mend every break
And scar on my glass ball
So that one day I'll see the world
And answer that distant call
Within a stormy, shining girl
Who is me.
So breathe.
