I thought this time for once had gone away Your hold on me had finally gone Finally gone I spread the word that I was back again With metaphors, I stepped back from the edge Without those chains My mind freed from it's cage Without those chains Fully conscious But just a thought, a glimpse I spiral down again My ruined past A life I could not win If this was you I know you'd do so much better I may be here but I am losing, losing ground If it was you I'd tear it down If it was you I'd soon discover If it was you I'd soon recover But I'm not you And I don't know better
