Golden Afternoon

We'll start from day one
"Tell me what you've done"
The marks of a shut-in
Determined to run

As I'm dashing through the forest
The dirt rejects my attempt to stray the path
But the rabbit lures me further into his trap
And soon I'm beneath the lush grass

Just like the sun, I will stay ablaze
Burning all that's in my way
And like the stars residing in space
I will find a place to stay

I'm invincible
To all the rage, the hate, the pain of fate
I am vulnerable
To all my rage, my hatе, the pace at which I change

Thе clouds in the sky are ever flowing
Ever moving, ever mocking those like me
But even the sand, the dirt, the rocks
The earth reshapes what it can be

But I can't see who I will be
It's scaring me

And all these pretentious metaphors
Are building a wall between me and the truth
I don't want to hear it anymore, no more

To be honest, being honest
Is honestly too terrifying
If I'm honest, being honest
Is honestly something I will never be

If there's no one around
When that tree falls down
Do you think it makes any sound?
Do you think it wants to be found?

Do you think it's hurting? It's writhing?
While lying on the ground?
But there is no crying, no mourning
Was just a tree, anyhow

Just like the sun, I will stay ablaze
Burning all that's in my way
And like the stars residing in space
I will find a place to stay

I'm invincible
To all the rage, the hate, the pain of fate
I am vulnerable
To all my rage, my hate, the pace at which I change

The clouds in the sky are ever flowing
Ever moving, ever mocking those like me
But even the sand, the dirt, the rocks
The earth reshapes what it can be

Who will I be? It's scaring me
Who will I be once I am free?
