I’m looking at you through the glass
I don’t know how long its been
Sitting there observing me
Next time you watch me
Next time you have the urge to test me
Remember what your studying is me
I’m staring at you trough the window
I know your looking in
Watching my every move
Waiting to see how I react
Next time know I see you
Next time realize I have been watching you to
Realize what your staring at is me
Before you tell your self how strange I am
Before you tell the world how much different I am from the rest of you
Remember its only different from what you see
I can see you through the bars you have put me in
Making me the object of your ridicule
I cling to the iron bars
I will not cry
I will not beg for freedom
I will not give you the satisfaction
I will become stone
I curse the stars
For they have lied to me for the last time
You have ridiculed me for the last time
You have watched me for the last time
I am breaking free
I don’t care what you say
I don’t care if you try to tame me to your liking
You can control me no longer
I shall linger in this cell never again
I will break these bars
I will rip the shackles from my feet
And I will dance from dawn to dawn
I will love with the passion that one thousand swords can not break
I will laugh with all of my heart
And you shall never study me again
I don’t want you to feel what it felt like
I could never wish that on anyone
I want you to know that you never again have any power over me
I am free
