Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I used to stand strong and defiant to the wind
Like a bird of storm in any currents
I'd spread my wings
And I used to ride them furious waves, singing
"To no country nor man will I ever be slave"
[Verse 2]
But now no blast
No breeze will billow my sail
[Verse 3]
And I used to say, "Alone is how one travels best"
Home is where I stand, don't need anything else
And I never knew
This ease could leave
I never thought I'd say
Please show me the way
[Verse 4]
'Cause now no blast
No breeze will billow my sail
'Cause now no moon
No stars will show me the way
[Verse 5]
I used to stand strong and defiant to the wind
Like a bird of storm in any currents
I'd spread my wings
[Verse 6]
But now no blast
No breeze will billow my sail
But now no moon
No stars will show me the way
