Description
Written one morning in the bus, a poem for all those dreamers trapped in the system
Lyrics
I lost my face
In a storm called fear.
They bought my voice
Then took my tears.
When you look at me now
I’m a poster child,
Hiding all my pain
Under a smile.
And you’ll never see me,
Because that’s not allowed.
I was born of light
Now I’m a shadow of a shadow.
[Chorus]
But I dream of flying.
to a sky called me,
Where I’m singing in the clouds
Like a freedom Banshee,
And they’re trying to call me down
to the safety of their cage
Yet all they have is money
and I’ve already paid.
[Bridge]
Soar
High
into myself.
The moon
plucked me
From the dust on their shelf.
Can you see me whirling
Through their bars
I’m warming my soul
In a sea of stars.
And all I have to do,
To reach this sky,
Is dream that I kissed
All my fears goodbye.
And all I have to do,
To reach this sky
is dream that I kissed
All my fears goodbye.
You should try it, you know,
for this land’s is built under an endless sky,
and the key to their cage
is the courage to fly.
and the key to their cage
is the courage to fly.
[Bridge]
Soar
High
into myself.
The moon
Plucked me
From the dust on their shelf.
Can you see me whirling
Through their bars
I’m warming my soul
In a sea of stars.
And all I had to do,
To reach this sky,
Was dream that I kissed
All my fears goodbye.
And all I had to do,
To reach this sky
Was dream that I kissed
All my fears goodbye.
