Deep within there is a war
Surging far and near over the shores
Devouring all that's around
I try to fight the fear, throw my cares away
But raging waters boil within
I jerk, I turn and scream
And find it's not a dream
The shadows of my thoughts
The things my past has brought
Are haunting me
It's hard to let go of the past
I feel if my memories do not last,
I lose a part of me
But I still long to be free
I want to live without regret
I want to dance till I spin the world faster
No more looking over my shoulders
I'll rid my path of all these boulders
I just want to be free
No more ghosts of mistakes of my past
No more paranoia about the future
Just freedom. FREEDOM.
