World came to a stand still
Porcelain shackles chain me to the wall
With deep grazes on my wrists
And blood on my clothes
My feet freed from the stirrups
But didn't bring me to the ground
I fell but not downwards
But into the most deafening sound
And the chime hung in the wind
So light yet so still
And my heart ran out of motion
I tried to clasp onto the wall
And just before the rope snapped and forever I fell
I tried to call for help
But no words could come out
With deep grazes on my wrists
And blood on my clothes
My feet freed from the stirrups
But didn't bring me to the ground
I fell but not downwards
But into the most deafening sound
And the chime hung in the wind
So light yet so still
And my heart ran out of motion
I tried to clasp onto the wall
And just before the rope snapped and forever I fell
I tried to call for help
But no words could come out
