I'd like to have the chance to
live my life for me.
Is it possible to explore my life
as well as have security?
Can you really have the best of both?
If so, what do you do?
I can't give up all that I love
as they are a big part too!
Have I found what I was looking for?
Is true love the path for me?
Is there a way in this life
when you can really feel you're free?
Will life always be met with restrictions?
Is freedom just what you feel
or can you really fly so high
as you walk the life that's real?
Can you do as you want to
or is your pathway set?
Can you take the road less travelled
or do you stick with the safer bet?
How do you really know happiness?
Is it something you feel inside?
Is life what you are bound to
or can the ties of life be untied?
What happens
when you are free of them?
Can your life be free from pain?
Can you then wake up each morning
ready to live again?
