Rapunzel

Up in your tower, away from the world
foundationed by fears of being on your own
cemented by trenches between 'you' and 'they' -
Your sanctuary - or so you say

Cos you put the bars against your window view
You built the walls that isolate you
A foolish Rapunzel - afraid of yourself -
A stranger, a prisoner inside your own head

Cos outside
Life seems so busy
But your mind
Makes you so dizzy
Oh what can you do
But embrace this confusion
And love this madness?

Life; a story you tell yourself in the night
A lullaby fiction, a bitter delight
Where their distant, muffled voices combine
In a chaos beyond your control

It all depends on your perspective
You're only alone if you see it that way
Oh come now Rapunzel, so hard on yourself
You're just as deserving as anyone else

Cos outside
Life seems so busy
While your mind
Makes you so dizzy
So what can you do
But embrace this confusion
And love this madness?

Time doesn't wait
You've gotta reach out
And make your mistakes
Break through the bars
Let down your hair
Rapunzel, Rapunzel
There's a world out there
There's a world -

Outside
Life seems so busy
And your mind
Makes you so dizzy
Oh what can you do
But embrace this confusion
And love this madness?
This sweet madness.
