Entangled

Folder: 
1996-1999

you are too free for my heart

like a bird uncaged

I need to see the spiderwebs

and open up my wings

one thousand diamonds

in your eyes

one thousand whispers

call you

you unspoken perfection

shining in romance

I am entangled

in my own web

you captured me

and now my head hurts

so why can�t I stop believing

that it�s okay

when I know this life

in the end won�t pay

why can�t you understand and see

I�m not the soul I used to be

I no longer see through child�s eyes

I have lived and learned

and I survived

I don�t play the song of nothing�s girl

I�ve seen the perils of her world

I�ve seen the blood run off her hands

down the drain with her lifelong plans

the truth is

we all have hearts that bleed

and all the tears that fall away

are precious dreams

I need to see such spiderwebs

to open up my wings

and when I fly

we both can sing

for I am so entangled

and now my head hurts

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A song that I wrote long ago.
