Your Own

((ch))
Wrappings off and my wings are free
Sending holes into the skies of your reality
Like you say, "Get down off that throne"
But your eyes are always wishing you'd have it for your own

I never claimed to rule your kingdom
But I always told you I knew more
When I was feeling sane

You lock it up when I'm ready to show you
And I trip a little
And you're right there to shove it in my face

((ch))

You wrap your arms around my heart so tightly
But it's you alone
Not I who said you're making any change

I climb atop the highest mountain
'Cause I wanted just to learn the path
But that just sounds too strange

((ch))

And I'm above and I'm happy for us as I rise above
To show you what you can become
Beneath my shadow you grow to hate me
But not long ago that shadow was survival from your sun

((ch))
