the title fits well enough
My broken wings,
afraid to fly,
I keep asking,
myself why.

In the arms of night,
I fall asleep,
I know I'm safe,
But, yet, I weep.

Visions fade,
dreams will flee,
All I want,
Is to be free.

I know not how,
or where, or when,
but at that time,
I will know then.

I do not know,
just what to say,
but I am scared,
of how long I'll stay.

I do so love him,
this I know,
but I cannot stand,
blow after blow.

I'm tangled up in blue,
I know not what to do,
When I look into those eyes,
Fear holds me back inside.

I'm not so much,
afraid of you,
I think it's more like
what you'll do.

You've said that nothing
will go down,
if I say,
"Get out of town."

I've put myself
through so much pain,
All I want,
is a happier day.

My babies are most
important to me,
If they are hurt,
it's up to me.

All I need,
is to be free.

I'm a stranger
in my own home,
all I do is cry,
when I'm alone.

Maybe I should
just end it all,
the ties that bind,
I cannot make that call.
