Awakening

Awakening

Driving without steering
I’m on some kind of track
No way of seeing forward
No mirror looking back

Can’t see me on my journey
Lost sight of where I am
I’m caught up in a mirage
Of someone else’s plan

No-one owns my life
And they stole me at the start
Now I’m living here on purpose
And I’m living from the heart

Fears are but illusions
Doubts exist in mind
Panic seeks to take the wheel
And further undermine

Dreaming takes me further
Out of my place and time
Can’t feel myself inside me
and miss all the road signs

So I’m opening the door
And I’m stepping off the edge

The car can go without me
Cos I’ve grown me wings instead
