Self preservation has kept you alive
With moderate happiness.
What right do you have to touch the sky?
To feel unearthly bliss
What voice is that you listen to?
What demons do you hid?
Your heart you deny,fate you curse
Why must you hold it inside?
How can you let go once more
Of a love you know that's right?
You've turned away so many times,
When will you give up the fight?
Standing solemnly at the edge of love
So afraid to fall,
When angels sing ,"open your wings",
But you never heed their call.
Centuries of denial are enslaved
Behind your mind's eye
If you leap that cliff with bound wings
How are you to fly?
Your mind screams indecision
As you foresee certain defeat
Fear overwhelms you
And your heart makes it's retreat.
Run to that dark cavern,
To where your fears lie,
Run away in silence
As the angels softly cry.
You bound your wings with your choice
To turn true love away,
Now you will live in the pain of your fear
Forever from this day...
