Trapped
I need freedom
To run and never look back
I am selfish
I am kind
I am scared
These bitter tears in my eyes
They blind me from the world
I want to see
I want to live
I need to run
What pain would I cause
Just leave this all behind
Live in a new world
Breathe
All the things I can't do here
I don't want success
I dont want riches
I dont want fame
Here I am trapped
Things I don't want
My future decided
Paid for with love
Accepted by guilt
I am pathetic
I am lonley
I am ashamed
There is never anything I can do right
You accuse me of living in a fantasy
And I say to you that fantasy lets me fight
I want to leave
I need to leave
I can't leave
I am a coward
I want to be better
I need to be better
And yet change seems so far away
I am lost
