Grasping the thought of frail feathers clipping the wings and stealing freedom
Away and like my crippled wings no use is this body to me anymore
I am anchored on words that were once preached to me
But now all look like symbols I can't make out what is read
And I hold on to my bodily functions by a thread
My limbs keep occupied while my head gets hooked on to another one of your lies
Yet again stagnant water waiting a child's ghost
Please tell me where you have been
I can't hear your voice through this water like void
(So tell me where you've been)
Wake up like the dawn
(Since we began)
Your cautious breath releases
(Why would you abandon)
One fatal act your fetal stance
(Your children)
Is a monarch
(Tell me where you've been)
A tradition that we still hold true
(Since we began)
Arrive in gold
(Why would you abandon)
And I will walk through
(Your children)
Barricaded voids
Strong holds hold up your own
Strong holds hold up your own
(Tell me where you've been)
If we all have regrets
(Since we began)
Then your first step out my door
(Why would you abandon)
Will be one I won't hold on to for long
(Your children)
(Tell me where you've been)
And I will sit in this place
(Since we began)
While the cold air hits my face
(Why would you abandon)
And I will breath it in once more
(Your children)
Strong holds hold up your own
Strong holds hold up your own
Tell me where you've been since we began
Why would you abandon your children
