Paradise Lost

Living a false life
A voice silenced by apathy
You woke me on the seventh day
Opened my lungs to breathe again
A garden of new discovery
Dreams became words and melody
My soul alight with joy
A joy I never knew
The hope of new beginnings
The start of something new

A voice so loud
The heavens weep, the angels cry
I closed my wings and gave away the chance to fly
How I wish I could see who I'm really meant to be
How I wish I could see who I'm really meant to be

Learning to be me again
Knowledge was all I needed
But you twisted what was innocent
And made it something else
The fruit you gave was poisoned
The sweetness soon was bitterness
The garden came crashing down
All that was left was emptiness

A voice so loud
The heavens weep, the angels cry
I closed my wings and gave away the chance to fly
How I wish I could see who I'm really meant to be
How I wish I could see who I'm really meant to be

From the rib you think I was made or so the story goes
But my voice is far more powerful than you will ever know

A voice so loud
The heavens sing, the angels cry
I found my wings and I'm taking the chance to fly
Now I can finally see who I'm really meant to be
Now I can finally see who I'm really meant to be
Now I can finally see who I'm really meant to be
