Revive

They all wear the mask
To hide the depths of their hollow hearts
Do you not see me?
Do you not hear me?
I need to know
Why am I cast aside so?
Like a broken seashell
Who no longer sings the song of the ocean
Her home awaits
Beyond the gates
But one will never know
The secrets of fate

I thought you were a golden flower in a field of blue
I thought I saw a soul behind those hazel eyes
Sad how hollow they seemed when you said goodbye
My eyes blurred and I saw the real you
Til I saw just another mask
Too scared to break past

Like a wounded bird
I'm lost in flight
Lost in transmission
No one came to save me
So I resuscitated myself
Listened to whispered words of the wise
Though my feet failed and my arms flailed
I fought until the fight in me was free

Though the masked love to slaughter me
I have grown too strong
To ever worry where I belong
For now I remember my song
