Forbidden
I cannot say what I want, what I need,
Outside I smile but inside I bleed,
I put on a mask, my life is hidden,
Because what I want, what I need is forbidden.
I got caught in the prison of my own sins
When I try to escape, my weakness wins
I am nothing but a small drop in the ocean
And nobody knows my biggest emotion.
I look at the stillness of the cold lake,
Life is slow and peaceful, life is on a break,
I wish I could have the freedom of a bird,
I wish that the laws were not that absurd.
