Forbidden

Saša Milivojev - FORBIDDEN
 

You forbade me to gaze at the Sun
And when dresses fall from rooftops
You forbade me to laugh
And cry in grief
You forbade me to love
To think freely
To have a grain of hope
And while I fall from the sky on the concrete
Please
Let me live
And sneak away
Into my vicious cycle
For which I long
I will go on singing
What you want to hear
I will just sing
But I will never get over
You forbidding me to sing

Run away as hard and as fast as you can. Once they start forbidding you to do this that and the other, it is time to run away never looking back! Lovely!
