these wings will

it's a place that's kind of lonely

a broken heart and a lost soul

looking in the mirror

and trying to find

a trace

of myself

can you see

the inner me?

it's calling, crying

why do i keep lying

set me free

gotta stop hiding

from the truth

you said you knew me

but did you really

cause how can anyone

know who i am

if i don't know myself?

and yes these wings

will set me free

and these broken

melodies

will keep on playing

until i come home

these wings will set me free

i'm on the floor, shivering

all alone, an empty house

the window panes are broken

look inside, look inside

can you see the emptiness

in my eyes?

can you read the stories

hidden within me?

they're written on my face,

in my crying eyes

on my fake smile

i don't know how to

trust myself

or anyone else

anymore...

take the time to listen to

the secrets i have never shared

i don't even care

who hears, i just need

someone to trust

i don't know who 

or what to believe

and yes these wings

will set me free

and the songs that i sing

will keep on going

even when i'm lost

these wings will set me free

i want to stop having to hide

myself, behind a facade

dancing only when i'm alone

i want to be able to

let myself

be who i really am

but who am i?

i keep on lying

keep on trying

to make sure

i don't lose

the things i have

the things i want

the things i need

friends,

inspiration

desperation

i don't know what to feel

the chains that bind me

are locked and i can't find the key

the real me is locked inside

and you will never find it

unless i let you see

but these wings

will set me free

and the dreams i dream

will still keep coming

although i'm helpless

these wings will set me free

stop trying to control me

i'm not yours anymore

i want to stop hiding

i want to come out and show

the world, who i am

who i am is not who you think

it's not as easy as you want to believe

my heart is broken but

it's still strong

i scream and i hear the echoes

i'm lost and lonely and afraid

but somehow i will find a way

through this rain

i'm surrounded by people now

feels like another hopeless crowd

did this really help

do any of them

even hear

the screams and cries

the agony?

still these wings

will set me free

and i can't even breathe

yet i will make it out alive

and it's time to say

yes these wings will set me free

can you set me free?

can you even hear me?

can you feel the pain?

can you see the rain?

set me free,

set me free

let me go

this is my hope

this is a chance

set me free
