From Black to Bright

Tongue tied
hands twisted behind your back
hiding the past
no one will ever know
and you'll never forget
you don't belong here.
you need an escape,
an alibi
someone to take you
to the future you deserve.
implications keep you
from moving on.
letting go
isn't easy
but you can't look back

All I can hope for you
is for you to be happy
All I can wish for you
is for you to be satisfied
with where
and who
you are

Look to the future
don't hold back.
it'll get brighter
quit living in black.
