Message

Brought up with the heart of a lion
Depended on no other heart, but mine
Built a great wall around me
Many have tried to climb it,
others have fallen from it
While others stayed on the top
Never climbed down on my end
I have the strength of thousands
I've given it away
Gift from above to share with you
But now, all has changed
I need it back
Seeing you disappearing
I'm reaching for your hand
Where was a hand when I disappeared?
They gave me their demons from their minds
Made a little space in mine and kept it there
There's a cancer in my heart
Whispering in the dark
I feel it there
You search for my help
Looking at my empty hands
I am searching as you are
Bottle after bottle, fill after fill
Many messages have scattered the ocean
Waiting for a reply
Can you hear my screaming?
Do you see my endless tears?
Here I am, helpless
I know you want to die
as I have died many cancers
I feel you have fallen as I have
Feeling your mind breaking
as mine has been broken
I hope you can see me
My light is fading
I can hear so many voices
Feels like I'm drowning
I am a message in the bottle
I hope this message finds you
Help me find myself
and you will find my heart of a lion again
