If it's part of me, in my head, I won't. Can't lie. Then they've won. Fix me. Do it. Two heads. Big bend. If it's one of us, then it's you, not me. Can't be. I don't know you. Now we're left pondering our humanity. Wandered into the gray. Doubt, anxiety, second guessing. Now there's only one way. You've distracted me. You've distracted me. Changed trajectory. Changed trajectory. Flying into the sun. Icarus, spread your wings. Take flight. Goodbye. I was born in a cage which I never truly left. But now, I'm praying for just one last escape. Big bend.
