My life is going nowhere
Spinning out of control
Bound in chains-
Seeing their hot gaze
Follow me down below


My wings can no longer spread
My eyes cannot see
No sound can I hear
My only feel is dread


Down, still downward I plunge
My arms reaching desperately
For the wide blue
Of the sky I loved


No more to feel the wind's caress
No more to see the sun's light
Dance along the fields below
Shining through the clouds so white


I must have reached too far
Set my eyes on a goal
Deemed too wrong
To turn me into such a scar


Thrust out, I have no home
No people can I claim as mine
No love is there, loneliness
Is what I shall find


The ground caves as I hit my mark
The shafts erupt and twist
Turning and shifting its form
To form my cage, so dark


Here I shall stay, alone
In a place empty, silent, and cold
Face my time, day after day
Until my end comes, to find me old
