I'd Rather Be Free

I have wings and I want to fly
But I cannot break free
From the prisons of fear.

I can see the blue skies above
But they are just beyond my reach
'Cause I'm put in a bubble of security.

I can also see the dangers lurking outside
And I know that I could die
But that's a risk I'm ready to take
For the feel of being able to fly.

I want to die, not on the ground
When my wings are tired and weak.
I want to die when I'm in flight
When I'm on the heights of ecstacy,
When my life is mine and I am free......
