Claustrophobia impending, they’d see through this disguise
Symbols turn and run in horror to ridicule the eyes
Undivided concentration, it fails to bring the gains
Taunted by your own impairment, the will begins to bend
Hold on, be strong, the end will surely come
When the world will cease this fallacy
Raise your head above the water to be pushed down again
Drowning in the constant torment of those you thought were friends
Destiny is what awaits he who pushes harder still
Fight the fear of total failure, they‘ll never break the will
This defect is a gift, turn resentment to uplift
The wind is changing
Surrender the disguise and look past your own demise
The wind must change
And young child, don’t walk away from your dreams
And young child, it’s not as bad as it seems
Sticks and stones may break your bones, but only you can hurt you
As you crawl inside your shell you hide
Licking your wounds in the cover of the shadows, you renew
Desensitise your fragile mind, fortify the essence of your insides, calcified
Now you crawl out of the shadows to face those that paint with scorn
They would hold you if they could bear to wrap their arms around this aberration
Their repugnance shining clearly through
Hands are shaking, a mind of their own who you cannot disown
Unstoppable, out of control, never will you tame
Now chasing shadows, I’m chasing these shadows again
