Abandon

Do not look at me For all my hair has abandoned my body I need you to be brave Do not be like me, a slave

I have fallen My wings broke Colour has left my eyes No more hair to stroke

Although I don't want you to leave I'm the one leaving I know you'll be sad I know you'll be grieving

But rather live for me And that's when you'll see How good life can be How much you're actually free
