I could close my eyes and relate my life,
The life that was meant to be driven alone,
Where my own heart kept me imprisoned in a cage of lies.

Yes I walked alone in the den of lions,
They roared every second trying to devour me,
But a little girl told me to be brave,
I listened and now i survived.

I walked on empty dirty streets of the townships,
I met little innocent souls deserted to death,
I cried with them and our tears washed away our pain,
Little did i know friendships never last.
They healed and abandoned me.

With my bare feet i ran thousands miles away from love,
As it had taught me i was not bound to be loved,
I ran...
