Desperation

Trapped between two worlds I want to scream,

my heart's bleeding, tears pricking in my eyes.

Now all I want from life is live in my dream,

without desperation, incomprehension and lies.

 

I know I wasn't made for living in so real world,

for drowning in its treacherous grime.

I close my eyes and I'm running towards you,

I feel so much love and that is no crime.

 

I see in your eyes, that you understand,

your smile tells me you know what I feel,

the touch of your hands helps me stand

and your voice convinces me, that you are real.

 

I desperately long to burst out of the cage,

I need to fly high on the wings of your love,

all bridges let burnt together with rage

deep down below while I'm soaring above...

 

...where the sun and moon unite, you're waiting for me,

save me, I'm not strong enough to reach your place.

Don't let me fall back down, please, it's killing me.

Grant me just one touch, one look in your face.

 

My wings are burning, my fall is now very close.

No return, I'm ready to die, this is my stand,

I pay the highest price for your one more embrace.

Do what you have to, my life's in your hands.
