Chains to my soul

(And) hatred pierces my heart as well

Reaching up towards the sky

Wishing that I could fly

Can you see the fire, splintered wings

Do you know the fear, splintered wings

Can you see the tears, splintered wings

Do you know the freedom of the splintered wings

Fear to be free

And your heart stops and tries to weep

Break the bonds, stretch out your arms

Fly to be free

Can you see the fire, splintered wings

Do you know the fear, splintered wings

Can you see the tears, splintered wings

Do you know the freedom of the splintered wings

Shackles bring me down

Down to the ground

Monolithic thunder

Crushes me down

Bonds pulling tighter

Ripping me in two

Voices cry out louder

Laughter snaps me in two

Bonds bring me down

As I try to hold my ground

I realize now I have to fly

Before I burn and die

Can you see the fire, splintered wings

Do you know the fear, splintered wings

Can you see the tears, splintered wings

Do you know the freedom of the splintered wings

Splintered wings

Can you see the fire

Do you know the fear

Can you see the tears inside

Can you see the fire

Do you know the fear

Can you see the freedom inside

Can you see the fire, splintered wings

Do you know the fear, splintered wings

Can you see the tears, splintered wings

Do you know the freedom of the splintered wings
