Trapped

Trapped within this skull, confined to this city,

All I want remains out of reach, held in captivity.

A desire to leave, a plan to break free,
I long to be one with earth’s quiet eternity.

The reason for my existence, I never could find.
Everything I loved made me run and hide.

Call me crazy, then leave me be,
This world, was it ready for a soul like me?

These passing nights stealing away my dreams,
Waiting for you, am I ready to be let down again?

Afraid to confess what I truly feel,
Daydreams haunt me, yet they seem so real.

I’d fight the world, for you and what we believe,
Just save me from myself, a quest I can’t achieve.
