Erin Nightingale - Bound

We endured at the crossroads of our lives
Sharing triumphs and pain
God Himself brought the six of us here
And I know we'll be together again
But the time has come, another phase
Where we must head our separate ways
Oh, Heaven, call the heedless days to halt

Write me a roadblock
Forestall the end
I know it's safe here
Please, let me stay here
Cut off from whatever I'll face
For once I am frightened
My worries are heightened
My heart's bound within this place

We were born with the golden wings to fly
But we stick to the ground
Shining, lovely, and perfect for the sky
Are we frightened our weight might pull them down
Trust me: we won't fail as long as we
Try to be the best that we can be
I've seen you soar, so promise me you'll try

Even though there might be a roadblock
It's not the end
There's someone beside you
Like stars, He will guide you
And mend all he can with His grace
Just like you did, I know
You'll conquer this, although
Your heart's bound you to this place

It takes endless trying
And you've come so far
Someday you'll be flying
And you're gonna reach your star

All I'm saying as I leave you now
Is you have beautiful dreams
They're not worth killing or forgetting about
You'll reach them if you stretch your wings

Show me your wingspan
You'll be all right

Write us a roadblock
But it's not the end
When earth tries to bind us
Courage will find us
Though clouded the nights we may face
I know how you're feeling
With sky as your ceiling
The terror of drifting in space
But as I go flying
Say you'll keep on trying
'Cause though it may be
Hard to believe
You're gonna leave this place

As I leave all of you
Say you'll miss my face
I will always love you
My heart's bound within this place
