My feet are slapping
Out the ground
Between escape
And where I am now
The light thats
Streaming through the gap
Expands as I
Open the trap
They're catching up
To me they reach
But it's too late
I've found the breach
I step outside
And slam the door
Forget about
What came before
Chorus:
I took the breath
I'd longed to breath
My lungs were soaking
In the sea
The sky could not
Contain the air
It's colors that
Exploded there
The old grey tower
Was no more
To haunt my mind
Now I was sure
Their medicine
Was not for me
The stuff they thought
It'd make me see
Could not compare
With what's outside
All of these things
They tried to hide
Are more than I
would ever know
If staying there
was what I chose
The sand it slept
Under my feet
While waves they played
Against my knees
I laughed out loud
And then I thought
Why did I stick around?
Verse 2:
I looked around
At first I thought
The only one
To not get caught
The thought of all
That lonely space
Removed the laugh
Lined on my face
When setting camp
Under the stars(suns?sattellites?)
Another light
From not as far
They were out here
More people free
And that's what I
Was now to be
