To Be Heard

All through your childhood
When growing up we all withstood
Sometimes the weight was more than we could bare
With problems so small that no-one really cared
Was it something that I didn’t learn
Did someone forget to hold me tight
All these years I didn’t breathe a word
But now I want my song to be heard
Oh how some of us got through it
And some of us forget
Some of us ask them why they do it
But life turns out that way
But the mark it left on some of us
How strange we now behave
Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird
I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard
Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird
I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard
You can’t mend broken childhood dreams
It hurts so bad in life’s mystery
Without a warning or a prayer
They find you and you can feel them there
What’s the meaning
Why the pain that goes away to come back again
Was it something that I didn’t learn
Did someone forget to hold me tight
All these years I didn’t breathe a word
But now I want my song to be heard
Oh how some of us got through it
And some of us forget
Some of us ask them why they do it
But life turns out that way
But the mark it left on some of us
How strange we now behave
Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird
I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard
Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird
I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard
Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird
I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard
Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird
I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard
