Wings


Your existence is bound by walls of darkness,
And you’re just too afraid to admit it..
Haven’t you ever thought of failing, alone?
And that dream in which you try to reach out for that warmth that you once owned?
No matter the goals you hit and the barriers you cross..
There shall always be storms that wander around your thoughts..

Haven’t you ever considered death as an option?
By which you could end all your failures and get past the day of the coffins..
You write all your problems on a screen with the light on..
While your brothers and sisters wouldn’t even know that they’re mentioned in this song..
Your own shadows create barriers with no passage for light..
I feel taped by my limitations – and I’m scared to put up a fight..

It’s the same air we breathe,
On the same soil that we breed,
The same notes that we hold,
The same way in which we get old,
The same God that we pray,
The same mistakes that each one of us make..
You and I are soldiers o f the same war..
Yet, we turn against our own,
And don’t give out a hand, each time when we crawl…

All these years, I’ve tried standing tall..
No matter how hard I try, I always think that I’d fall..

We all find our ways to play out our needs,
Yet we’re trapped between heights of colourless tress..
I’m not yet ready to plunge into this ocean of blood,
Simply cause I haven’t gotten a chance to ride my own pulse..

If I were a monument, I would request you to leave me alone,
I’m only but a seed, awaiting my birth..

Find your wings..
Fly,
