For Anna

Up in flames

You remember falling

Cut off your grace

And your wings

You’d do it all over again

.

Up in the air

You remember dreaming

You remember hurt and pain

But the love you would find

Down on the earth

Would be worth of all the trouble

Of letting go of His name

.

Up in the sky

You left your mark

You left the memory of rebellion

You made it possible to believe

In choice

That your destiny can be all yours

And only yours

.

Up in heaven

You are not the villain

But, instead, a hero

Because you cut off your wings

Cut off your grace

To, finally, be truly free
