Fly Free

I know that you think they are keeping you down
Your smile remains frozen beneath a dark frown
But you hold the key and the lock is your chord
So don’t be afraid to relinquish your sword

I know how you feel for the world can be cruel
When day begets night and it conjures a fool
Who sits in your head like a tormented cry
The pantomime fashions a frustrated sigh

Until you accept it was all meant to be
This life that you live will be stuck in a plea
So patch up your wounds and follow the sea
For even a broken winged bird can fly free

I know in your heart you are ready to sing
If only your mind could leave past in the ring
You fought a good fight, but the fortunes that roll
Belong to the scars buried deep in your soul

I know there are words that you cannot express
And wondering how you befell this great mess
Just keeps you a captive of social decline
Start making decisions to polish your shine

Until you accept it was all meant to be
This life that you live will be stuck in a plea
So patch up your wounds and follow the sea
For even a broken winged bird can fly free
