Separate

Life's going to take my heart
And pull it apart

I've got to get out of this place
But I can't erase

What's happened—it follows
And I wallow

I could run
But what's done is done

To disappear
Would be to adhere

And I refuse to conform
Instead, I'll bring a raging storm

To destroy this part of me
It's the only thing that will set me free
