Jewel

Barcelona
Where the winds all blew
The churches dont have windows
But the graveyards do
Me and my shadow
Are wrestling again
Look out stranger
Theres a dark cloud moving in
But if you could hear
The voice in my heart
It would tell you
Im afraid I am alone
Wont somebody please
Hold me, release me
Show me the meaning of mercy
Let me loose
Fly, let me fly
Let me fly
Super paranoid
Im blending, Im blurring
Im bleeding
Into the scenery
Loving someone else
Is so much easier
But I hold myself hostage
In the mirror
But if you could hear
The voice in my heart
It would tell you
Im tired of feeling this way
God, wont you please
Hold me, release me
Show me the meaning of mercy
Let me loose
Let me fly
Let me fly
Let me fly
I wont be held down
I wont be held back
I will lead with my faith
The red light
Has been following me
But dont worry mother
Its no longer my gravity
Hold me, release me
Show me the meaning of mercy
Let me fly
Let me fly
Let me fly
