Troubles waters outside do brew Crash against the shore of my mind, In this time of duress when all I wish to do is sleep and rest To close my eyes and escape for but a moment to the world of my dream Set free from the constraints that in this world it seems To live thrive on driving me out of my well placed seams Oh to escape from this distressful time Where I am pressed and uncomfortable a criminal for an unknown crime I just want for once to close my eyes And have the trouble melt away, at my single say To have a carefree day To simply go out and stay and play No thought as to where anyone is No thought as to where I am to be No thought at all simple freedom Sometimes I wonder why this hammer so heavy fell on me Pinned me to the ground unwilling to set me free Withheld by my duty it is here I must stay For though I was placed here I will not dismay I will take my life and pull it down with an arm I will seize the situation and prevent it from doing further harm I will not relent nor cry For I was not place here to simply die For I know now I shall step away And it is for that reason that I move day by day.
