I looked up and saw,
The sky light on fire,
Millions of colors blaring,
Electrifying, like a live wire.
Holding me down,
Keeping me in its grasp,
No way to escape,
The iron hard clasp
I scream out once
But my voice is not heard
I know it's not me
When I hear the songbird
I cannot speak
I cannot call
No one to help me
No one at all
Then it arrives
Out of nowhere
To take me away
And bind up the tares
I fight
But it's not long lasting
The drugs overcome me
Pull me down under
I wake later
And everything's changed
I am healed
And not yet deranged
I hear them then
They are off planning
I grab what I can
And tip toe over
Hear them talking
They don't keep silent
They have no secrets
Don't think I'll be violent
I wait and I listen
To what they have to say
They had no idea how I'd feel
When I knew they had gotten their way
I thrashed and I screamed
Taking it all out
Then I felt a small pinch
They had again knocked me out
I wake to one voice
It was the other
And even he knows
That I wanted another
The pain is searing
But soon leaves me lost
We are winning
But at what cost?
They know I won't last long
Know how much I care
I want to hope
But do I dare?
For to hope
I'd leave myself open
And when I'd get hurt
It would just leave me broken
So I hold it all in
Put on a strong face
I am the Mockingjay
The ammunition to this 'race'.
