Grounded wings

Echoes of a broken past, whispered in the night

Silent tears, endless fights, lost her light

You thought you were winning, but you lost her soul

Grounded her wings, took control

Wounds like rivers that won’t cease to flow

In the silence, her pain starts to grow

Where were you when she cried?

Needed a mother, not pride

Your lies and your deceit

Lost her trust, her retreat

Now she’s almost grown, can’t you see?

Her pain screams in her plea

Longing for love, feeling alone

Lost in a world of your own

You call that fair?

She’s fading, unaware

She’s crying out, but you don’t hear

She’s losing you, don’t even see

Her silent plea, her sinking plea

Sleepless nights, she waited alone

For the mother she’s never known

You want control, but you can’t contain

The storm inside her, the silent pain

Where were you when she cried?

Needed a mother, not pride

Your lies and your deceit

Lost her trust, her retreat

Now she’s almost grown, can’t you see?

Her pain screams in her plea

Longing for love, feeling alone

Lost in a world of your own

You call that fair?

She’s fading, unaware

She’s crying out, but you don’t hear

She’s losing you, don’t even see

Her silent plea, her sinking plea

Open your eyes, break the wall

See her fall, hear her call

Love unconditionally, set her free

Before she becomes someone she’s not meant to be
