Drown in the air that's there for you to breath.
Burn in the water that's meant to heal.
Scream in the quiet, sleepless nights.
Die in the very wake of life.
Fall from above, that's the only way to rise.
People can be blind even with a pair of eyes.
Daydream sweetly amidst the chaos of your nightmares
Give your own monsters a frightful scare.
Breed demons at the foot of heaven's gate.
Toy with the threads of people's fates.
Pick up a blade and slice the skies.
Separating the world's days and nights.
Fall from cliffs and swim through the clouds.
Fight until the voices become calming sound.
Read the scriptures of curses like a story.
Sing songs of your life that faded into a memory.
Punch through the walls that were meant to confine.
Tear down the stairs that were built for you to rise.
Because it's only the weak-minded that choose climb.
But darling, would you dare to fly?
Trample every flower that blooms from the ground.
And walk away without making a sound.
Because your feet had once felt the broken shards of glass.
And your blood will nourish the fragile blades of grass.
And leave your footprints be, as you walk down your road.
Let the world see the marks; it'll let them know.
That someone brave had walked here before.
And that they've gone a long way since they last left home.
And people will look down on you sometimes.
Because that's what they do, when you walk a different line.
Don't bother; just spread your wings and fly.
So when they look at you now, they have to search the skies.
And remember, you'll always be alone.
Because people fear those who don't.
They'll remember how they drove you away from your home.
Remember every shard they threw; every stone.
And know that now, they look up at you in the sky.
Begging you to be their guide.
And I hope that one day, you'll genuinely smile.
For their chains can't reach you now that you're up so high.
