Lapis Lazuli - Broken wings

Since birth I’ve been trapped inside
I tried to break loose
But I cannot fight myself
It seems like I’ll be stuck forevermore

The pain dwells within myself
I can’t seem to fight it
I might just give up
And hope that it will end soon, end soon

Why can’t I run
I am trapped in this empty shell
And I’m breaking free
But I know you can’t fly on broken wings

Is it over now
Oh has my time come
Is it over now
Will my pain finally end

Am I forgotten, rejected by all
Can life fade out now
Or am I a misplaced child

My childhood ended when I joined this world
I’m a prisoner inside my own flesh and bone

Those words don’t come from me
It is my vessel who speaks
Her language is not mine
They are the words of a fool
The fool that I am doomed to be
May never break free
And I’m struggling endlessly
Trapped here for all eternity

I cannot control myself
My body has a mind of its own once more
I can’t resist its will
No more, no more

Oh my mind is getting numb
I feel that it venture further into mist
My senses will go numb and I will fade

Why can’t I run
I am trapped in this empty shell
And I can’t break free
But I know you can’t fly on broken wings

Why can’t I run
I am trapped in this empty shell
And I’m breaking free
But I know you can’t fly on broken wings
