All my life I'm governed and controlled

At someone's beck and call

Made to walk a balanced line before I even crawled 

All the time I hungered for release

On independence day

Without a contact or a name, I waited anyway 

Torn apart and written in the starts

More I cannot see

Blind enough to follow through

Unsupervised devotion 

Forever I was losing sight, sound escaping

And all the world was tuning upside down

For every move I tried to make when I was stranded

At least I'm standing on unsolid ground 

All my live I'm governed and controlled

At someone's beck and call

Maybe there's no genius in having lived at all 

All my life I'm taken by surprise

I'm someone's waste of time

Now I walk a balanced line

And step into tomorrow 

Forever I was losing sight, sound escaping

And all the world was tuning upside down

For every move I tried to make when I was stranded

At least I'm standing on unsolid ground
