Kites Without Strings

i was high

like a kite you pulled me through

when you ran

i followed you

clipped at the wings

you held all my strings

i was taught

but never learned a thing

is it any wonder

i came crashing down

when i did i hit solid ground

was it all a blunder

or were all those years i spent

head in clouds heaven sent

gotta learn to walk

before you run

you flew before you

learned either one

now you're gone, you're gone

now you're gone, you're gone

tangled in you

i aimed for the wild blue

when i hit the ground

what a bitter earth i found

kites without strings

fly on to bigger things

but you brought me down

you were determined,

i was bound

you can't fly away

from who you are

you tried and you

drifted way too far

now you're gone, you're gone

now you're gone, you're gone

flying on the ground

is always wrong

i let it go but you kept holding on

now you're gone, you're gone

now you're gone, you're gone

now you're gone, you're gone

now you're gone, you're gone
