No noise, no unwanted comments, I've heard them all. Where Oh where can I go to get away? My mind needs to get away, to be still and worry free, Is there a place like that around just for me? I am depressed again, I can't stand it much more, I am so so close to falling apart, my heart has turned cold, my eyes to stone, I feel as though my time has come to turn around and hide in my nest, where only the birds and butterflies welcome my presence. Forbidden silence, where people control your every word, love, hate, anger, patience are not allowed, Forbidden words, you cannot speak out loud, only inside you where you can see the inner peace, I lay down in the fields of heaven, whereby my heart can finally Cease...
