Break the Barrier
Break the Barrier
The rushing water holds me back;
I’m slipping under, down below
I’ve been under way too long.
I think it’s time to loose control.
What I write is never right.
I’ve lost my mind again.
My eyes stay closed for good tonight.
Put in chains by my only friend.
I’m going to miss it all!
I have to try; I have to fall
I need the right; I need the wrong.
I need to find where I belong.
The greatest mistake
I will ever make
is not to take the chance
because I think I’ll fail.
So catch me, cause I’m falling.
Hold me up above the world forever.
I want to be the brand new sky.
Up here the view’s so much better
The empty streets in my head
are filled with all my doubt.
I keep thinking
that I’ll never break out.
I’m stuck in this cage.
It’s way too small
I can’t tell if I’m here at all.
I’m lost. It’s dark.
Tell me where I can start.
