When what you think you want is what you need, isn't
You'll live for the moment, but see life through a prism
Nothing left inside, you're not shocked to be in prison
As others take from you, to steal your soul and dreams
Leaving nothing behind, but sorrow and the schemes
Wanting revenge, a way to fight back, you can't believe
So surrender to the quiet, pray it all goes silent
The world outside shatters the calm, but doesn't matter
Forgiveness frees you, not the one who will receive
