If I grew scales on my skin
And wings on my back,
Would I be free?
Or do I just need a backpack
And a fist full of courage
To finally leave.
And when the day comes for me
To pave the unpaved road
Will I chose marbled tiles
Or rocks and stones?
I know I'm not adventurous
I try to mix in;
But If our souls were what we wore on our skins,
I would stand out.
And then I would hold my head up high,
And sing my own song,
Because truly? That's all I've wanted all along.
