Wings

Whispering Lochs told me that night
'One day, you'll grow wings and spread them wide.'

Soon it happened, that day
When my wings grew;
I was ready to fly away

But you chained me down
With the chain of fear
Telling me my dream
Would end in tears

You tried to cut my wings
With the sword of love
Tried to stop me from flying;
So I could only stay right here

But I still remembered
A time back then
When I hadn't grown wings;
You replaced them

You were the one
Who gave me courage
Gave me the courage
To grow wings

Now you are the one
Who's pulling me down
So I can't explore the unseen
