When I Can Choose

Into the forest I go, Without any hesitation. To lose my mind, Or find my kind. To keep my heart, Or gain my love. To aim at nothing but the stars, Or hoping one day to forget these scars. Always praying for less goodbyes, To always forgive these lies. For reasons why my mind haven't been the same, You wouldn't listen to the shame. So you couldn't know half of the abuse, Why I'm always confuse. Why I will scream the blues, Why they won't let me choose. Hoping and praying one day, I will be able to choose.
