This isn't a union- it's temporary.

Fall in love with life? I don't know if I want to commit yet... this piece is metaphorical... so sorry if you get totally lost.

I'm walking on coals with my eyes closed,
With weights on my ankles,
And chains around my clothes!
Am I feeling trapped?
With my mind on lock down,
Underneath a cracked crown!
"Hey, where are you going friend?"
That's worse than asking me who I've been!

If only I could rewrite this script,
With better characters,
And a plot that lifts.
Cause after going through hell,
A heavenly scene just seems to fit.
Friends with benefits,
Fate and me don't need to commit.
(We don't need to commit.)

Each deep breath I take
Is like swallowing needles.
When it's time to speak to you,
My voice turns feeble.
Fire and brimstone,
Trust and hope.
Sun or moon,
Either way, my parade ends up soaked!
Like it's karma sent.
They don't provide umbrella's,
For the unfortunate.

We can kiss, but darling don't tell.
A promise for you, is my eternity of hell.
Let me keep my wings,
Cause I won't let you cut them off.
You want it to make sense,
But I don't like how much this will cost!

If only I could rewrite this script,
With better characters,
And a plot that lifts.
Cause after going through hell,
A heavenly scene just seems to fit.
Friends with benefits,
Fate and me don't need to commit.
(We don't need to commit.)

I feel the struggle, your strife. I feel your pain. It seems as though you are being watched through the eyes of your foe. You are always seen as a disgrace. A disgusting creature. Always wanted never accepted. They are trying to trap you in a world of rules and regulations, where you are never allowed to spread your wings and fly.

Is this a song? It felt as if it had the flow of another song of yours. :) It's really good. I enjoyed this one as much as 'Claw'. Well written.

I feel your pain as well. I am one of those who have felt pain and knows what it is when I see it.
