I am happy and calm.
 I wonder if I'll experience freedom for once.
  I hear promises never kept.
   I see my desires far from reach.
    I want freedom, I've waited long enough.
     I am happy and calm.
      I pretend I have my freedom away from burdens.
       I feel stuck and empty.
        I touch the water I yearn for.
         I worry my freedom will never come.
          I cry to shed this empty feeling.
           I am happy and calm.
            I understand I'll never see the shores of freedom.
             I say look to the horizon of dreams.
              I dream of long awaited desires.
               I try to free myself of this pain.
                I hope I'll be free from this emptiness.
                 I am happy and calm.
