Breaking Free

She’s living in a daze
Living for everyone else
Never for herself

Constantly wanting to take her life
Wanting to break free
Break free from all the expectations

Her parents don’t even notice what they are doing
They don’t see the pain she hides inside
They ignore all the stories on her arms

One night she can’t take it anymore
She gets a knife and writes her family a note
Explaining why she can’t take it anymore

Soaring high now above the clouds
She smiles down knowing what she left behind
She flies away to live her own life
