For years I've seen you fighting

Against your heart

To lead you through the dangers

That lie ahead on your way

Towards tomorrows arms

Tears have turned from sweet to sour and hours to days

You're hiding yourself away

From our cruel world's embrace

And as your days turn to weeks

You'll cry yourself to sleep

In the cage

We all have our fears but yours are
