There's a war in my head that keeps raging within

I'm sure to most people my thoughts would be sins.

My heart wants to thrive and love without a net,

My head tells my heart…everything is a threat.

My heart wants to live and laugh and play,

My head tells my heart…no one will ever stay.

My heart wants to be cherished and give all it's got,

My head tells my heart…you'll never get that shot.

My heart wants to feel like I'm a pretty girl,

My head tells my heart…you'll never get that deal.

My heart wants to flourish, live and bloom,

My head tells my heart…there'll always be doom.

My heart wants to grow and experience romance,

My head tells my heart…you will never get that chance.

All I ask is 1 chance in this life to be free,

Free to be loved and free to be me.
