Soul of Freedom

I'm tied in chains, to a broken wall, I would like to grow feathers and fly, But they say it's dangerous for you, they keep me safe and close, They tie me to the bedroom's door, I claim my right to go and run, But that worries me too, I hear footsteps, I yell, help ! help !, Someone is on to me, The shadows would scare me away, I won't dare devils, I would rather stay, Safe and close as they say, Until my dreams and wishes, would fade away, I would no longer own a soul of freedom, I would only own a body of stone.
