CROSSING OVER
When we shy away from telling the truth,
darkness will surely steal our youth,
we can't find words to explain our error,
leading us onto the paths of terror.
Temptations lure us into traps,
clever trickery in a jaw that snaps,
it all seems fine as we enter in,
only then does the bell start to ring.
We don't know how to break the silence,
frustrations lead us into defiance,
anger and fighting come to the fore,
as secrets are hidden behind a closed door.
We've crossed a line into doom and slavery,
stealing away our freedom and bravery,
lies and secrets are chains that bind,
truth and light is what we need to find.
