"A Broken Wing and a Damaged Soul"

Living with these invisible wings.

They are so soft and light,

They are powerful and magnificent,

But so many times I've had a broken wing.

Everytime I try to fly, I can't.

I can't fly away because I've got shackles.

They're on my ankles and my wrists.

I hang on to love with just a small bit of hope still in my heart.

So many times you've damaged my soul.

It's weak and cold,

But my hope for my future is still strong.

I believe I'll find happiness somewhere out there.

These scars on my arms are from my past,

Before I found you, I wouldn't stop hurting myself.

I've made the decision to breakaway from my past.

I'll change my past and my present,

In order to make my future the best.

Happiness makes my one wing recover faster.

It strengthens my soul with these undying powers.

I can feel my wing lift.

The pain is now gone!

The shackles are bursting into dust,

Because my love and hopes are too strong to withstand.

Being trapped in this dark tower,

I'll start to fly up toward the sun.

Then, I'll be free from everyone.

For those who had held me down

And my past never ceasing.

I'll change myself for the better.

Looking to the stars for the hope and faith,

Of the next day to come.

It will be full of great feelings for my soul.

I'll be free of all my pasts.

Free from the problems that once had me

Chained down and afraid.

My wings, I can spread and they shimmer now,

With and undying happiness.

A lot of these are kind of old and I've changed dramatically in how I've been acting now.
