Bewitched

Thoughts start to invade my mind, 
Mixed emotions embraced my heart 
Lost self, where can I find? 
Swollen eyes, where are you staring at

Locked inside a four-cornered room 
Tangled chain tightly grasping my wrist 
I wanted to escape this harsh world, 
I wanted to live on a faraway land 

Looking outside the window, 
Staring at the beautiful moon as it glows 
It does not lessen my fear, 
As I see witches flying in near

This world is full of autocratic sorcerers, 
A world where mere trance is not enough
A world that many suffers 
A world that you can hardly survive 

A mortal like me
Desiring a harmonious life
Put under this curse
Would I be free from this domineering world?
