earthbound,

straining to kiss the sun

blazing skies, clarity just out of reach

purpose, direction, a meaning to justify

this relentless existence

arms outstretched, face upturned

new form, chrysalis

to feel the muscles reform below the skin

shifting forward, flight

away from here reborn

this rooted shallow rut

envelopes the senses

choke myself on the bitter taste of ash,

the remnants of others failings

shifting forward, flight

away from here reborn

this rooted shallow rut

envelopes the senses

chrysalis shield me

make me more than what I see

elevate my soul, freedom from this earth

make me more than what I see

elevate my soul, freedom from this disease

reshape these battered broken bones

reshape these battered broken bones

reshape these battered broken bones

reshape these battered broken bones

regenerate these wounds from crawling for all these years

arms outstretched, face upturned

new form, chrysalis

to feel the muscles reform below the skin (x4)
