Weight of the Dream

(Verse 1)
I'm walking through a fog so thick, I can't see the sun
Another day, another fight, another race I've already lost
These four walls are closing in, stealing all the air
I'm screaming but there's no sound, is anybody there?

---

(Pre-Chorus)
They tell me chase the light, but my wings are made of lead
I just want to lay my body down, and rest my tired head

---

(Chorus)
I don't want to exist, in this universe of pain
Just let me fade away, like a whisper in the rain
I'm fighting to be free, but the shackles are so tight
Choking on the pressure, in the middle of the night

---

(Verse 2)
I see the dream so clearly, a paradise so green
But the road to get there is a cruel and endless machine
It chews you up and spits you out, demands your very soul
For a taste of liberation, to finally feel whole

---

(Chorus)
I don't want to exist, in this universe of pain
Just let me fade away, like a whisper in the rain
I'm fighting to be free, but the shackles are so tight
Choking on the pressure, in the middle of the night

---

(Outro)
Free... free...
Just let me be free...
