Bare all to me she screamed
tell me it's not how it seems
lay it out like a well planned scheme

sounds escape me without a path
fall upon she with wrath
like a bloodless bloodbath

I just want an escape from
this reality I say
become a casualty, a tragedy 
by no other name but a travesty 

sickened by this thought
my faith becomes borrowed not bought
my life becomes learned not taught

take my soul turn it inside out
leave no question no doubt 
I am free I shout

like a battle amongst an endless war
who I am resides at my core
clip these wings and I still shall soar
