You think I can't see you, but can you hear me shout:
"I wanna be free!"
You feel so almighty, but I still can cry out:
"I wanna be free!"
I still carry a 'Heart, as a reminder of my pledge:
"I wanna be free!"
What I have to lose, it's worth jumping from that edge:
"Let me be free!"

Can you feel me?

Little sad dreamer,
Once you hid in fear,
Sought for God in a pill.
Can you see me, feel me?
You want me so bad and now,
You felt so lost anyhow,
What have you got to lose,
Hoping, one day, to find your muse?
Is it worth it?
It's worth it?
Not worth it.
You better hold onto it,
The greatest gift I gave you,
You can start anew,
Without losing yourself.

It's only one part of a "mini-opera" I've been workin' for a little while, but I felt that I was goin' nowhere with it. I was sorta inspired by The Who's rock-operas, and I read 'bout The Four Noble Truths of Buddhism.
I was inspired by both, and I tried my hand at a so-called mini-opera, sorta like The Who's "A Quick One While He's Away", which is a "10-minute story made out of 2-and-a-half minute songs".

This is/was the third (and, for now, last) part of my little unnamed project.
