They tell us not to break
Label our minds too fragile
Even when we are awake
We try to hide
Behind the windows which have been shattered to
pieces
Under the tables collected with dust
Just for peace of mind
The willow grows
But it traps tighter
As we let in the sunlight
But we let them crawl in our veins
We let them run through our system
~Yayati
