A heavy heart with silver wings,
Afraid to dance,
Afraid to sing,
Flying in a mindless trance.
A heavy heart with silver wings,
Watching others take the leap,
Losing themselves in the real things,
No longer in a sheltered sleep.
A skeptical heart with silver wings,
Wanting to soar without these fears,
Wanting to see what an open mind brings,
Wanting to leave behind the wasted years.
A free heart with silver wings,
Leaving behind the home it knows.
Excited for what the new world brings,
Excited to see what it shows.
