20 Years (Laraigné)

I’ve been 20 years in prison,
locked in my own consciousness.
I’ve been fighting it out with reason,
but there is no one I could have hurt less.

I’ve been killing time with fiction,
building memories and thoughts.
It felt I had no better options
for my heart to fill in what couldn’t’ve been bought.

And I’m looking out
for solutions to heal.
I’m keeping in
desire, frustrations and a large amount of pills.

I’ve been settling down with decision,
chasing calm, kicking out fears.
But I accept this stupid condition,
confining self storms, swallowing my tears.

Cause I’m looking out
for solutions to heal.
I’m keeping in
desire, frustrations…
Cause I’m looking out
for solutions to heal.
I’m keeping in
desire, frustrations and a large amount of pills.

And I’m screaming out,
imploring for my liberation.
And I’m freaking out,
searching for some quiet fruition.

I’ve played my part of this old partition,
it seems it has no purpose.
Like snow falling in the ocean,
I wonder if one day I’ll be ready to disclose.

And I’m looking out
for solutions to heal.
I’m keeping in
desire, frustrations and a large amount of pills.

And I’m screaming out,
imploring for my liberation.
And I’m freaking out,
searching for some quiet fruition.
