Are you listening?
I'm caught and sinking
As if the very earth
Wished to envelop me

But I'm not afraid
I've got the wind by my side
And though I've mountains to cross
This time I'm not lost

The path may seem impossible
But now I am unstoppable
And though the earth reaches up to swallow me down
I have the wind to lift me off the ground

I won't fall prey to this darkness
Wishing to fill me with sadness
Misery continues, trying her very best
Until I catch a gale and leave this mess
