Discharged
And just like that I’m human again Four years of paperwork blocks Of the constant threat of jail The fact that everyone knows I didn’t do it Yet here I sat with my tail tucked between my legs
Today I signed the final form And in a month I can vote again I can breathe easy for the first time in so long The paranoia of tiny cells is gone
The world around me is brighter And now the main fight must continue She kept him away for five years But that’s nothing compared to forever I’ll see you soon I’ll learn who you are And I’ll tell you I’m so proud of you I’ll never leave again
I’ve waited for this moment For months upon months upon months Counting down the days To when I can do as I please My future is not set anymore I’m finally free to leave And the next town looks like it’s in glitter No one knows me on those streets
