Drag Me Down

Wings of lead clipped and grounded Dreaming of bluer skies Roots are buried deeply under Lying static, paralyzed Bend me break me you just hate me No love lost to be found Numbered days I'll break these chains That keep me tethered to the ground Don't drag me down and pull me under So suffocating, why can't you let me breathe Don't drag me down into your suffering Broken spirit pained in silence Lying dormant, dead within Torn and tattered, feelings shattered Memories scattered to the wind Crawling out from under your weight I lift my eyes up to the sky My salvation lies within me I spread my wings and try to fly Don't drag me down and pull me under So suffocating, why can't you let me breathe Don't drag me down into your suffering The first cut is the deepest And it leaves you scarred And while you lie there bleeding You'll know that you're alive It's better than feeling, nothing at all Don't drag me down and pull me under So suffocating, why can't you let me breathe Don't drag me down into your suffering So suffocating
