Closing Gates

This echo from within
Growing louder by the second
So distant
But so close now like it never left me
The vision in my dreams
Is it what made me feel this way
So small again
Like the days before
Are you seeing me now

Speaking out of the heart
Trying to untie myself
Even though nothing is holding me
Felt the separation of mind and reality
Finally, the pressure had reached its limit
Why can't I shed my skin?
For it's the remedy I need
But I'm not the shell I'm in
And I'm not this talking mind

What if I could just throw it all away
And start feeling like I was never here
Would that make my life feel easier
If I skipped to the last page
And wake me up

Well I can't feel this I do not feel
I can't feel this
I do

Why can't I just see
It's history that I can't control
There's no changing the past
But my mind plays tricks on me
So I fight it to survive
What you feel is what you feel
No matter the reason
So through the mind clouded by pain
Accept and move on

At the moment I stepped into the cage
I was strangled
But this worried me not
I didn't feel the fear anymore

I don't see the reason to run
I'm standing face to face with you
I know what's coming
But you don't see it

What if I could just throw it all away
And start feeling like I was never here
Would that make my life feel easier
If I skipped to the last page

What if I could just throw it all away
And start feeling like I was never here
Would that make my life feel easier
If I skipped to the last page

Don't throw your life away
There always is a reason
Just take my hand
I'll show you the way
I won't throw my life away
You showed me the reason
I took your hand
You led me to my way
