Trapped in a cage of her worst nightmares then and again
She shook the glistening bars
Hoping they would break apart
She could see glimpses
Into the world beyond
Of things she used to know
Not enough Not enough
Filled with
A lot of empty
From the inside out
There things were
Then they were all gone
Broken down
Hard to see the good now
The diamonds are still glittering
Just not with the light you knew
From your window see all the old places
You once roamed
No more no more
Back to the start
I'm sorry but now you've seen the worst side of me.
The sparks seem to be fading
Motivation's all gone
Still
Some good maybe
Try to keep it close to your heart
I tell you this now and I hope you believe it
But I really am trying
Even though that seems like all I can do
It's enough for now
For now
Heart Pumping
Waiting in line
Skip skip
Press skip
That's right
Past the discomfort
Let's find a new reality
Turn the
Volume down
The harsh sounds are making my head spin
Infected
Infected
Shh now
Not quite
Close the door
Close away the noise
Breathe I can still breathe
This cold
Clean air
Away away
Away from the worst edge
Of the problems
Twisted reflections,
Shattered glass
Push it aside
It-
It might be enough
This moment
And those ones
Strewn across my memory
Down on the floor
I'll see through them once more
-once more,
The future's mine,
The futures yours
It belongs to all of us now
Something, it seems, finally proved me wrong
That's good That's good
Being right is sometimes a curse
But other times, no
Not now
Because I've seen dark
But also light
It's still shining there
A little bit
A little bit
So I'll try my best to reach for it
....won't you help me?

Just based on some stuff I was thinking about when I had a moment to think.
