16 - Sixteen

What the hell are we

Fighting for

I'd give it my all but who knows

What the future holds

Burning eyes but you still smile

I’m scared for myself

All I do is hold your hand

I wanna runaway

With no hatred, no fear

Before I’m aware of everything

That’ s out of my reach

Wish I could runaway

With no intention, no regrets

Tired of pretending

That I can make it

Now I’ m out to life in 4 years

Still worry about myself

I don’t wanna peak in

My worst years

Can’t stay here

But I’m so scared I’ll find

Reasons why I can’t

Cause there’ s no turning back

The time

I wanna fly away

With confidence and faith

And when my heart would reach

The sun

I’ll hold your hand

Wish I could fly away

With every bit of dignity

I’ve left

And when my lungs would

Fill with air

I’ll smile again

Oh I know I got to be strong

We said it like a promise

Though I’m haunted by

The pieces from the dark

I won’t let go

See I’m still here

This fire will never disappear

It’s calling me

Over and over again

I wanna fly away

With confidence and faith

And when my heart would reach

The sun

I’ll hold your hand

I wanna fly away

With every bit of dignity

I’ve left

And when my lungs would

Fill with air

I’ll smile again
