The Perfect Storm

Break Free

If all you want
Is to let go and be free
Maybe one day
You will learn to be

If you want a life
Without a care
Run through the grass
With the wind in your hair

Sit down a minute
And stop to breathe
Look at yourself
And you will see

See yourself
Your hopes and dreams
Realize
Things aren't what they seem

The thoughts in your head
A fatal seed
If you don't grab the reigns
And take the lead

The struggle you go through
Is fought by us all
And no matter how much you've done
You don't deserve to fall

We go through struggles
Every day
But despite all the madness
We chose to stay

All of us
Are broken hearted
We feel as if
Our soul's departed

In our hands
The world is broken
And each of us hold
A painful token

At some point reality
Took its toll
And we break
From all the life it stole

We crash, we burn
We drown in sin
But we still can't let
The darkness in

It's okay to cry
Let some tears leak
Because that's a sign
You are not weak

It's truly horrible
As one that suffers
As if life is a video
That constantly buffers

Find a safe place
To ride out the pain
But you still feel as if
You're going insane

Seek refuge
In someones arms
Seek a person
Who never harms

Discover your sanity
And hold on tight
Don't give up
Just keep up the fight

Open your eyes
And you will see
You can be exactly
Who you want to be

There's lots of troubles
That you have bared
And remembering the past
Just makes you scared

But if you take your past
And put it behind
Keep on running
And you will find

Find yourself
In a new tomorrow
Arms outstretched
And free from sorrow

Look ahead
The sun is shining
But your eyes can still see
And you hear no whining

Imagine yourself
And your darkness within
Set on fire
And thrown to the wind

Look at your ankles
They're no longer chained
Look at your wrists
They're no longer stained

Your free of the burdens
That have run your life
Heart washed of pain
And freed from strife
