And I am awakened again, and this time
I feel like everything is clear on what I don’t want anymore.
I want out like never before; I’m screaming on the inside to find the exit from this hell of a place.
And you can’t talk me down. I’m done, and I have no more excuses to stay.
For a second, I was mad at you, but this war has nothing to do with you.
And so please forgive me if I don’t come towards you when you give me that look.
I must escape as the anger and sadness battling inside me may erupt from me and tear my world apart tonight.
