Can't seem to do
The thing I intend
Though my intentions are good
I feel the wind move
And I'd like to bend
I say that I would and I know I should
But something inside me won't let me go
To be what I know I could be
Somehow I've got to break free
Won't somebody help me please

I'm a prisoner of my own will
I can't move ahead and I can't
Stand still
I wish that I was free to fly
I'm a prisoner of my own will

Locked in a cell
Of my weak desire
Chained to an alibi
Words have been said
That burned me like fire
But I don't give in and I don't
Know why
But something inside me won't let
Me let go
To be what my heart wants to be
Somehow I've got to break free
Won't somebody help me please
