You broke my wings,

And hurt me,

So that I couldn’t fly.

You stood on me,

You trampled me,

You smothered out my life.

You took my heart,

And choked it.

Boy, you made me cry!

I broke the strong hold.

Now I’m on the mend.

My wings are more beautiful

than they’ve ever been.

I’ve taken back my heart,

That I so naively gave away.

You can’t stand on me

Boy, I’ve flown away!
