I want to speak the memories
That no one dares to remember
And chase away the fairy tales of life
I want to clear the rumors
That no one ever started
And tell them how it feels just to live
Because this is my life
And it’s the life I’ve chosen
Even if my anchor starts to float away
And even if my blinds are half open
I still know what its like to be me
I want to save the world
From a disease that will never happen
With the only cure being leaving hate behind
So take the blinds down
You don’t need them
Hold your head high
You’re not perfect
Just smile, because you’re who you want to be.

Once you get through all the restraints that hold you back in life, you can finally be free. No fear of what you say hurting someone, no fear that you will not achieve as you may have failed before. It's so difficult sometimes to know when tto drop something or when to put your all into it.
