Listen-
Hear no sound.
Feel only the wind against your face,
Quick to turn into sharp wings.

Run with me in the silence,
Take my hand,
And I'll show you worlds
That you could only have dreamed of.

Catch the air with your wings,
Feel it seep into your soul,
Let it touch your heart,
Right where it belongs.

Listen-
Can you hear that?
The faint screaming of the mindless,
The sound lost on the edges of the wind.

Just the faintest traces of insanity,
Lost to all but me,
I can hear the screams in your head,
There's nothing I can do to help.

I will fight for you,
And live when you cannot,
Find the purpose of life,
And smile since you never will.

Listen-
The wolves are howling at the full moon,
In the darkness,
Where the wind is still.

Weapons in hand,
Sparkling silver like the moon,
Fighting for a reason,
Nobody understands.

There's no way to turn back now,
Turning into the fight,
Fake it until you make it,
It's all about pretending.

Listen-
Can you hear the beat of my own heart?
It's ******, It's never the same,
Changing just as much as the wind...

They believe I'm a lost cause,
Lost in my own world,
Far from the total truth,
Crazy, oddly different.

If only they knew what kind of things I've heard,
Listening when everyone forgets,
Taking in the surroundings,
And making them apart of me.
