Free

Locked inside
Of my own cage
I don't know how I
Can get away

But I hope
There will be a day
That the lights will come back on
And I can see

I tend to
Give into my thoughts
And I find myself caught
In what they say
And do to me

I need to spread my wings
And fly

Above the city sky
Above the people here at night
Above the ones
Who dim my light
Oh, hmm,

I sit here
In my window
So no one sees my pain
So they won't know

I start to stir
Within my restraints
And I yern
To get out of this place

The day will come
When the morning sun
Gives me strength to break away
And find another place to stay

But For now I'm trapped
Imagining that
I'm somewhere I am not

But this time I get up
And I push open the window
Flying out
So they will know
I'm free
