Starting Now
November 21, 2011
Felt weak in the knees, flimsy like paper, lost in the feeling of nothing real
A slap across the face, pushed around, you didn’t have to keep me down
Get out. I don’t need this depression stalking my shadow behind me
Walk through the door, to never return keep the books and the memories
I don’t need your darkness creeping over me
Better go fast, don’t fall on your way cause I’m not gonna be there to pick you up again
Starting now step into the light, don’t keep down my flight, you cant stop silly old me
From spreading my wings to escape what you made me
