lyrics

I wanna run free
Free from this captivity
Break these shackles that bind me
And for once, live carefree

I wanna rise up
Get rid of the dull and grey
Now could you please loosen the iron
I need to break away

I wish to chase passion
The kind which only makes sense
If you see your teeth grit and your eyes well up
But this dense fog cleverly clouds my most needed jump

Hope it's not too lonely out there
That there are other people like me
Or maybe they're just too scared
That anarchy isn't as easy as it seems

The monotony of life has scarred us
We all wish to live to our hearts content
But now, we settle for average rather than something magical
Because apparently, we need their consent

Their concern is just a well fitting mask,
Which slowly blends in with the face
It reasons out the fire in our souls
For a mistake

Dreams don't come true
So play it safe like how we do
Now do not question our authority
We are old and wise, you young fool

They'll convince you, I assure it.
But please don't give in
Because halfway across your journey you'll see
A man with welled up eyes and gritted teeth, and say
That's where I wanted to be.
