Floating in space we only see beauty
A planet at peace, no fight to survive, no borderlines.
Bathed in the light of the eternal
It’s easy to see that all is potential.
Cos the truth of it is nothing can harm me
And every path leads me home at the end of my journey
Next time I won’t hide – influence your mind
Next time I won’t lose – always free to choose
Next time I’ll move on to one hope, one life, one joy.

Time hits, memory slips, takes a moment to recognise who she is
Imprisoned in her new disguise, then summons the courage to step outside
It’s like crash landing in another world no memory remains of the place she came from
Tastes the fear as senses collide and the violence threatens to suffocate her.
In the chaos around her, she knows she will flounder,
Staring hard through slitted eyes, can’t see the wood for trees.
The sense of an ending - almost overwhelming
Till disconnection from intention brings her to her knees.
Tunes in, mind zones out as she gives in to the media storm
That feeds her what she’s supposed to hear and drowns out the noise of distant war
Cos every single day is a constant fight to pick an easy path between broken promises
She’s falling fast as she loses touch with everything inside that could help to save her
But sometimes she remembers all that’s behind her
In stolen moments lost in nature, smiling at the moon.
Then dreams of forgiveness leave her in pieces.
This time I can’t win
This time I’ll get by as fragments left behind
This time I will hide – deep within your mind
This time there’s no choice – never found a voice
This time I must hold on
In the chaos around her, she knows she will flounder,
Staring hard through slitted eyes, can’t see the wood for trees.
The sense of an ending - almost overwhelming
Till disconnection from intention brings her to her knees.
But when she remembers all that’s behind her
She’s lost in nature, crying at the moon but no one hears her pleas.
