In the dark I'm learning all the lessons There are no objections Only good intentions Not allowed to question No more second-guessing This is never ending This is never ending There can be no other way I just have to play the game Nothing I can do to change I just have to play I just have to play I'm thinking Feel like something's missing Is this real or science fiction? I'm wishing To stop the hurting No more burden In the meantime I'll just keep on working And I'm suffocating Told how I should be behaving And my heart is in the right place But I'm living like a slave I wanna break free To fly To be released Reaching higher I desire To finally breathe
