If I had wings, I would like to fly
But my courage would fail me, like it always has
I can't trust myself to stay in the air,
But I wish I could join the birds.

I'm bored of the repetition that makes up my life,
Wake up, school, go home, sleep,
I wish there was some sort of magic that would show itself to me
And if there is, where is it?

If I could leave home forever, and go on the greatest of adventures, I doubt I would
I'm truly a coward, though I like to say I'm not
I like to dream of magic and heroes
But my fantasies will never come to be

I wish I could break free of this cage I trapped myself in,
The bars made of pity and fear,
I'm weak, and I wish I wasn't
But falling stars are just meteors, and I've never seen one anyway

I made a cage of gold and fire,
I sit here all alone
And even though it's free of hurt,
It's lacking the magic I need

When you say magic, do you mean love? because, no matter how boring or menial our life may seem, as long as love is abundant, you should be fine. c:
Please don't feel as though you're all alone, because that's far from the truth.
