lyrics

Have you ever wanted to run so fast you could fly?
Leave this world behind you and take to the sky?
Oh then someone came and they clipped your wings,
Nailed them to the ground and told you not so sing,

Have you ever wanted to swim across the sea?
Hold your breath,
Jump in and be free?
Oh then someone came and they put you in a cage,
Told you to smarten up and act your age,

When I look in the mirror,
I don't like what I see,
That old man in the suit,
Used to be,
Oh then someone came,
And took away all his dreams,
Left him naked on the floor with no one to hear his screams,

Now he stares back at me through the glass,
I'm just a sad glimpse for him into the past,
And with tears flowing down his face,
He asks me to save him,
Take him away from this place.
