No Strings

isn’t it funny how I thought

I couldn’t move without wings

even money can’t kill doubts

I’m no puppet, don’t need strings

isn’t it funny how I thought

I couldn’t move without wings

I will learn this phrase by heart

dry ends have fresh beginnings

but I can’t breathe

my heart, my heart it aches

are you at ease to see me on the floor

but I can’t breathe

my lungs, my lungs collapse

to scared to see

the wide open door

I’m not a loner

yet I learned how to fight my own war

no guns no blood

and it gets darker

the light shines through the cracks

in silent water into the riverbed

and I see oh I see

I can fly without wings

it seems so hard to believe

that I’m the one who pulls the strings

yeah

but I can’t breathe

my heart, my heart it aches

are you at ease to see me on the floor

but I can’t breathe

my lungs, my lungs collapse

to scared to see

the wide open door

I can’t breathe

I swear it’s you not me

I can’t breathe

find me on the floor

I can’t breathe

will I ever free

I can't see

the wide open door
