lyrics

Have you grown up through seasons
dressing up in golden chains?
all your dreams have come to life
all these fashion wonders
fill your days with easy flights
but the essence is still missing

You think that you're so funny
but you don't lead your life on your own
another puppet in the freak show
and their dirty logic
hanging from your ball and chain
have you ever felt complete?

Can you heed the calling?
I try but I'm afraid
if you don't do it
I'm the only one to blame
the tides are turning
a merman I should be
spread my wings now
and find my inner me
and I don't have to lie to myself again

I'm awake, I am straight
I can now withstand the pain
you dragged me down to the ground
falling without a sound

And the standards that you keep
are the chains that make you weak
down to my knees
overwhelmed with disbelief

I can ride, I can fly
your petitions in the funeral pyre
I wanna be happy, I wanna be sane
so long I have been afraid
I'm alive, I almost died
I'll disappear beyond your sight
I wanna be happy, I wanna be sane
so long I have been afraid

And the standards that you keep
are the chains that make you weak
keep me down to my knees
overwhelmed with disbelief
