The chains that bind have shattered now and rusted clean away No longer will they hold your life or you As droplets formed upon the grass, they have dissipated Leaving freedom’s bell to ring so clear and true
Look yonder to the great blue skies and spread your tiny wings Soar high and free upon the whistling winds Journey far away from here and discover who you are While learning how to exist in your own skin
Perhaps you will learn as days go by and hold this truth to you Those chains that bound you never did exist Except only in your mind, along with your inhibitions And the views, which you have now dismissed
A day will come when you may fly right back here to me Perhaps you will gently light upon my hand Stay with me for a while and watch me proudly smile As you fly off, with your life at your command
