A Missing Link

Look around
See how things unfold around you
Just sit down
Think to yourself about it
Let's just talk
How did you wind up here
Do you want
All this to become clear
Or are you happy where you are
Chasing down your childish dreams
Of controlling everything
So fly away on your dove of choice
The love you claim doesn't show in your voice
The screams I hear aren't the ones you think
Sometimes I wonder if there's a missing link
In this chain
Close your eyes
What do you see without them
Better life
Than what you're in right now
There's a place
Where love is the only feeling
Just above
This clear and cloudless ceiling
Or are you happy where you are
Chasing down your childish dreams
Of controlling everything
So fly away on your dove of choice
The love you claim doesn't show in your voice
The screams I hear aren't the ones you think
Sometimes I wonder if there's a missing link
In this chain
If all the chains that you tore down
Were here to hold you back right now
Would you burn through them
Knowing where you'd end up
The ones you hurt forgave you
And I still love you
So fly away on your dove of choice
The love you claim doesn't show in your voice
The screams I hear aren't the ones you think
Sometimes I wonder if there's a missing link
In this chain
