White Walls

lyrics

I wanted to be special
But It’s so overdone
I wanted to touch the clouds
But my hands have dissolved

Coming down
Coming down

I wanted to care
More than anyone else
I told myself I’d try no matter what
But then the world turned blue
And everything spun around me
Everyone drifted away
They carried on from their childish ways
But I’m stuck in a toy wooden castle


I don’t mind the fantasy
But you can only pretend for so long
I’m the princess of desire
Trapped within white walls

I wanna cry,
But my tears are icicles,
I wanna fight,
A soldier alone in this void of white-

This pressure within my body,
Confined in translucent skin
I fear there’s nothing, nothing left in there
Except a heavy cold frozen stone.

Coming Down

I wanted for you to love me.
But I’m forgotten here-
And as I watch myself perish and fade

I paint the walls with every last
fleeting bit of faith-
