"I drowned out the noise
with the sound of my breathing.
Distant voices calling for me.
Those hungry voices want me to go to the beyond.

But I want to find my home.
Wherever that is.

I lay on the ash covered ground.
Hoping for something to happen to me.
I heard a phoenix rises anew.

Then why can't I?

Gray skies are above me today.
Holding their tears as they're ashamed.
Of me.
Of who I became.

A person in a empty shell.
Hopefully I'll evolve one day.
But for now,
I can stay in this haunted forest.

I jumped in the glossy lake.
Allowing the water to fill my senses.
I'm swimming to the light.
Only then it was so crystal clear.
I'm finally free."
