You felt as though you walked alone
No one else could understand
The pain you felt inside your heart
Reaching out towards empty hands
Hours spent in fantasy
You were always one to dream
Worlds of myth and butterflies
To mend the broken seams
But now you’re free
Of these heavy chains that bind
The many human frailties
All the fears that plagued your mind
So take me away
Beneath your angel wings
From all life has to bring
You saw the world through different eyes
Almost timeless like the sands
With wisdom far beyond your years
Wasted by the ears of man
Looking all around your room
Trying to understand the cause
Nothing takes away the pain
Or reconciles the loss
But now you’re free
Of these heavy chains that bind
The many human frailties
All the fears that plagued your mind
So take me away
Beneath your angel wings
From all life has to bring
No one else could understand
The pain you felt inside your heart
Reaching out towards empty hands
Hours spent in fantasy
You were always one to dream
Worlds of myth and butterflies
To mend the broken seams
But now you’re free
Of these heavy chains that bind
The many human frailties
All the fears that plagued your mind
So take me away
Beneath your angel wings
From all life has to bring
You saw the world through different eyes
Almost timeless like the sands
With wisdom far beyond your years
Wasted by the ears of man
Looking all around your room
Trying to understand the cause
Nothing takes away the pain
Or reconciles the loss
But now you’re free
Of these heavy chains that bind
The many human frailties
All the fears that plagued your mind
So take me away
Beneath your angel wings
From all life has to bring
