The Orphan 05:25
The Orphan An old pain that clings to me that land that burnt my feet and tried to tear out my wings those scars I walk on everyday they hurt, they’re numb, they’re never gone for cuts made can never be undone I cried and I cried I thought I was to drown but hope came and gave me wings Away towards the moon I took my flight Where is hope? Where’s my strength? Where is the knife to cut out these strings pulling me back to that hell I thought I’d never leave? Fire falls from the sky It burns but I won’t consume I want to scream but no ears can hear me I choke, I cannot breathe No one comes! No one to hold me! The birds are singing a sorrowful song! “My heart knows there is a place I can call home. Here I wander among foreigners… I speak but they won’t understand what I say though we use the same words. I’m a stranger in this flesh, my skin wants to leave me. Numb! I just want the pain to go away. Leave! Leave! Where are my dreams?” I cried and I cried I thought I was to drown but hope came and gave me wings Away towards the moon I finally took my flight
