I dream of moving away
far from this place
to some faraway land
with peace filling the space
where people don't know me
and my father won't find me
to be my own person
and live unafraid
of saying the wrong thing
or breathing too loud
or looking too long
and getting thrown out
he would not look for me
of this I am certain
still I could not escape
the one living in my brain
