A Reckless Endeavour

This is not about my life This is not about my dreams I am just a child in an adult shell Hanging on by the seams This is not a choice you drop Not a path walked in vain Running on and on until my heart stops Or you take away my pain Let me reminisce if I may Of a place we did go, of a time, an idea Of a peace we'd all know Instead of this broken world draped in shadow Of fear and sorrow. Bloodstained This is a burden I can't bear alone I ask of you bear it with me Tear down the statuettes, shatter the thrones Open your eyes and you'll see a new way Try though we may it just seems As though we cannot break through Society's ideas say our thoughts will not do Are we too far gone can we not undo Lay a new path to follow for you
