I want to live.

And she let herself live dangerously,

Let herself live brilliantly and wildly,

She'd dance in the storm and with fire she'd play,

With that stubborn, erratic heart that doesn't sway,

In the wind her damaged wings still flying,

They tried to change her, they're still trying,

But she holds what she believes close to her chest,

Eyes that captivate, never looking back, only ahead,

'For,' she said, 'If I never take the risk,

If I don't fight the wars

and open locked doors

and give what I have to give

I might never learn how to live.

And I want to live.'
