Silent Whispers.



without a net
I let myself go
along with the flow
no rules, no fools
show me the way
the way to go

silent whispers
inject themselves
into my veins
and without a net
I let myself go

cowards scream at me
too afraid are they
to join me
on my quest to be free

who am I
and when will I know
nothing in this world
do I trust

burning my doubts
hiding my shouts
shouts of despair
as I discover
that I do
I do care

no turning back now.
