Moment

There is a moment that will haunt you,

That will break everything you've built up.

When you realize you were born to fly

But your feet are chained to the ground.

And somehow you're living a dream

But you still feel like dying sometimes,

And each day hangs on the edge of a blade.

Now the sun is shining and the birds are singing

And there are pieces of yourself that you will never get back.
