Shadows grow

Shadows grow

Inside my mind

As I sense your anxiety

You are like a novice on the hire wire

Every step is taken in dread

And deep inside your soul

I feel your terror of falling

As I watch your hands shaking

My heart breaks and I know not what to say

I only feel a fire of rage bursting inside me

I want to tear everything apart

Because I cannot bear this confinement a moment longer

It was years ago they stole your light

By trying to convince you

Something inside you was broken

And you lost the will to fight

As you allowed them to steal your power

And now I feel so helpless

For there is nothing I can do but watch

And when the pain becomes too much

I wrap my arms around you

Surely someone here on earth

Will understand

How badly you need protection

And how hard it is for you to stand

But its seems that

Even if they see

They just stand on the sidelines

And do nothing
