  Bound by chains,
I can no longer move how I want to

Why?
When?
How did it come to this?

Surely, this is how I feel every time
In public,
In front of friends and relatives alike

Since when did my wings perish,
leaving me with no way to get back up?
These chains called gravity pull me back down,
just when I felt like I was truly going somewhere
How am I going to get anywhere,
if everywhere I go,
the chains pull me back to where I started?

Surely there is some kind of secret to getting past all these boundaries
Surely, you can fly to your desired place,
past all those obstacles,
and land on the dream you have in your state of mind

While still sane, we shall go to the destined land of dreams,
soar past all those difficulties,
and finally break those chains that held us down
