Give you your wings

Walking with her head held high
Trying not to show you what’s inside
Just a broken girl with a crooked smile
Doing all she can to laugh

With everything he’s done
It’s amazing how she made it this far
Internal scars, and lost belief
She feels like the world’s gone black

How can I watch her as she stumbles in the dark
Trying to find what she needs
She never asked for much
Just a ray of light to help
Her find a way out of this

I’ll help you stand if you take the first step
‘cause I am not leaving you behind
This isn’t the end of the road
There’s so much left in store

So, I will give you your wings
If you promise me
You will learn to fly

When you were scared and you ran away
Did you think someone would follow you
Are you begging now
Trying to get some help
Feeling like nothing is right

Please, do not give up
Just hold my hand
I’ll be there every step
Even when the world goes cold
I’ll be yours to hold close

He took all you had
Left you on your knees
A broken girl crying for help

With secrets locked
And stories that will never be heard
No one will know
How much she holds inside
With a guarded heart
She scared to let anyone inside

Trapped by fear
And the thought of being left again
She’d rather be alone
Then ever feel the pain of goodbye

He never gave her the time of day
No explanation
Just a simple note
He was leaving
And there was nothing she can do

With a torn up heart
She’ll never been the same again

I'll hold your hand
If you keep your grip on reality
You must be strong
I know this won't last for long

So, I will give you your wings
If you promise me
You will learn to fly
