Broken dreams

I want freedom from this cage that contains me
All my hopes and dreams are held within
I seek, release from broken dreams

The path once laid in front of me has quickly turned to vine in a forest of dreams
Every feeling that I have had, now lays upon the surface

I broke down these walls (For me)
To set myself free (From you)
As you bring them back up
All around me
My essence is gone
I’m leaving no trace
With your words left behind
Finding my place

A half empty life, just falling away
A blind desire, waiting to see the light of day

I see a land that is so beautiful
Every branch on every tree is perfection
The portrait of my mind

I broke down these walls (For me)
To set myself free (From you)
As you bring them back up
All around me
My essence is gone
I’m leaving no trace
With your words left behind
Finding my place

Confusion washes over me with a drowning pressure
A breathless scream that falters
My arm is held out
But it is all in vain

I broke down these walls (For me)
To set myself free (From you)
As you bring them back up
All around me
My essence is gone
I’m leaving no trace
With your words left behind
Finding my place
