Do you ever see the corners of your mind
Glancing out the window of my eyes at the world,
Knocking on the ceiling, reverberating inside
Soft quiet echoes of my whispered dreams and aspirations
Lost against the fuzzy walls of lost memory

Watch my body go through the motions with a curious tilt
As I decide thus is thus, and sit down to try and forget
Forget that this is me and those are my hands touching and moving
Is it me though?
Cant I talk a walk away out of the house one day
Just me and my mind, all that I am

Dreams are the freedom of release, flinging open the latch and shutter
Soaring away from the saddened heavy limb
Trapped in its slumber as I... I YES ME really fly free...
That bursting of joyous exultation, the wind through my hair and
feathers
As I can soar above it all, unhindered and uninhibited
Suddenly feeling the snag, that silver rope round my ankle trailing down
through the stars
Let me go, please let me go and join the sky
Cant you see I dont belong with you, trapped inside your shell?
Tugging me harder against my own frustrated cries
Such beauty and delight racing through, racing as its robbed away
Constant stolen life as I try to break away to so much more
Always glimpsing that great beyond of mind expanse

Waking with sudden realization within my head again
The prison that it has become
Trapping me within a me endlessly it seems
Keeping the dreamer in her dreams, and shattering hope any reality.
