(Driving, distorted guitar riff kicks in, heavy drums follow) (Verse 1) Another morning, sun blinds the glass A million thoughts, they come and they pass I’m a passenger in my own skull The world keeps spinning, but I feel so small (Chorus) ‘Cause I’m living in my head,...

(Verse 1) Woke up in this bed of concrete and steel, Another day, another fight I have to feel. They put me here, said it was for my own good, But they don’t know the pain, misunderstood. They took my freedom, my life, my everything, But what really...
Continue reading...PROVE THEM WRONG
A seed they said, in barren ground, No chance to bloom, no hope to be found. A whispered doubt, a pitying frown, But deep within, a fire burned down. The whispers grew, a chorus strong, “Give it up,” their voices throng. But roots dug deep, where shadows lie,...

In four walls, a world transformed, Muscles stilled, a life reformed. Once fluid grace, now bound by chair, Adapting wings, to find new air. The mind, a compass, strong and true, Charts a course in shades of blue. Frustration’s tide, it ebbs and flows, But will to thrive,...

The sentinel stood, a skeletal frame, A silhouette stark, whispered death’s cold name. Branches like bones, clawed at the sky, No leaves to unfurl, just a mournful sigh. Seasons had turned, a silent ballet, Winter’s white shroud, spring’s verdant display. But the dead tree remained, a haunting sight,...
