headlock

Distant flickerings, greener scenery.
I'm outside, walking on the green grass as the sun shone down on me. Things are starting to get better.
---
This weather's bringing it all back again.
Yet despite this, the memories are flooding back.
---
Great adventures, faces and condensation.
What happened... I could never forget it.
---
I'm going outside to take it all in.
I breathe in, trying to calm myself down.
---

You say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock,
Gertrude (the voice) used to say that I was a terrible person and that I basically had my feelings locked away and hidden for eternity.
---
I don't believe any of it.
Now, I realise that it's not true because I try to be a good person every day.
---
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
She also said that it was too late to start all over again.
---
You know you're better than this.
I've realised that I shouldn't be defined by a voice in my head.
(these lyrics are by imogen heap)

    Hey @toffuna101 , thank you for sharing this. Some really evocative lyrics (I love Imogen Heap!). What part of this song spoke to you? What about these lyrics resonates?
