It has been five years
Since that day
You would think the pain would just go away
I still have trouble breathing sometimes
No longer listen to the church bells and chimes
"Why won't you speak?" They all ask, they all say
Stop bothering me! You don't know what happened that day!
What would you do? If it had happened to you?
Would you cry, or scream, or wish it away?
Would you tell someone, you would wouldn't you?
That's how I know it never happened to you
You don't know the pain
Your tears have never fallen down like rain
To form a puddle at your feet...
For people to walk all over, as they walk down the street
So don't tell me "Everything will be okay"!
I don't need words, I need the pain to go away!
Don't tell me I need to speak and not fight!
I am a bird and I will only take flight
I am a raven, forever more
Not just a name; something I have always searched for...
He can still haunt me,
But he can no longer hurt me
'Cause this fallen angel, she still has her wings,
And he is just a monster, no matter how angelic he seems!
If I could have flown away that night...
If I could have only taken flight...
Then I would no longer worry about being in his sight
Because that boy was stronger then I could fight...!
Come on birdie, use those wings
No matter how much the pain still stings
I wish I had flown away
Just fly away
From this town, I'm getting outa here
Fly away, just fly away from here...
