I am blindTo the peopleThe things that stare you downAnd I look right past them
I am deafTo the screamsThe things that tear you apartAnd I tune them out
I am numbTo the painThe things that you fight to killAnd I brush past them
I am nose-blindTo the stenchThe things that make you shudderAnd I walk through a cloud of them
I am tastelessTo the sensationThe things that make you gagAnd I swallow them without hesitation
I am goneTo the worldThe thing that makes no senseAnd I will never go backMy dear freedom is gone I need an escape go go far away deep inside the nightmares that put you here the snippets have no home no place to forget them the memories are never truly gone help me you can't call me broken weak terrible cruel and then yell when I don't fix myself I am broken weak terrible cruel because of you and what you did and where you put me all my freedom is gone gone forever gone and you took it that's not what was supposed to happen just let me forget myself but you keep taking my knives I'm trying to cut the cord let me cut it but you keep keeping me here why do you keep me here I'm not getting better because you're keeping me here let me go go go give me my knives my freedom my life back and I'll go let me cut the cord because my memories have no place to be forgotten anymore because you took my freedoms and now they're coming back because the place they were forgotten was destroyed so let me forget myself and destroy the source of all your problems just let me cut the cord
I fly in skies of purpleWhere the water shines like the moonThe birds sing like the rainAnd my old self can live again
I live in castles of goldWhere the windows never dullThe things I do never cause painAnd my old self can live again
I dwell in fantasies so largeWhere I don't feel reality's pullThe place that knows no limitsAnd my old self can live again
I walk on clouds of candyWhere the sun doesn't hurt my eyesThe darkness never criesAnd my old self, I live here again
