Listening to the symphony of sounds from my cell
I'm at the crossroads between heaven and hell
Remembering back through all of those years
the laughter, the pain and so many tears
Skipped through childhood, danced through teens
loved and cried in our twenties; had kids in between
The depression of life had me shivering in fear
wishing I was invisible or could just disappear
No more pretending to be something I'm not,
as I summon the courage that time has forgot
I've gathered my strength; pulled together my rage
put my life down in a book screaming from each page
Skipped through childhood; danced through teens
loved and cried in our twenties, had kids in between
Imagine an elevator traveling through time and fate
Reliving all the memories from both love and hate
Listening to the symphony of the sounds of farewell
I'm at the crossroads between heaven and hell
