Everything Can Change

Well I guess everybody’s sick of the way they are
Fell so deep into submission, I feel dominant
I start
To force myself not to do anything stupid again
I learnt that everyone breathes fire
I learnt we all beg for shelter
I witnessed as the world bled with anger
And my eyes popped out of my skull
And as the world clamoured with fear
I was empty
I was clear
For a second —
A bottle emptied into a hole
You said it’s all in my head
But the voices are drunk again
They told me to watch
With an open mind
And know that everything can change if we don’t hold on tight
You said «If you wanted to find piece
You could have found it on your own a long time ago.»
But this bedroom begs to be lived into
It begs to be exactly what I need
I never once asked for acceptance
I’ve begged my whole life for forgiveness
But the world never promised anything
And that was never guaranteed
You said it’s all in my head
But the voices are drunk again
They told me to watch
With an open mind
And know that everything can change if we don’t hold on tight
As the world goes down swinging
It fought like a champion
My chest keeps on burning
I told myself to stop complaining
I want to be proud of who I am
I want to be proud of who I am
