My gaze locked downward
Drawn to the floor
as I walk slowly forward
My legs heavy as steel

I wait for the light to blot out
as if a shadow has covered the sun
but when my heavy gaze looks up
all I want to do is run

but my legs feel heavy
and my breath is weak
and your gaze is sharp
ready to take a leap

I want to fight back,
but my body seems heavy
I want to stop you,
But your stance scares me

I'm scarred by the end
unable to take anymore
my body feels much lighter
now that I'm hanging above the floor
