These Palace Walls - Courtney Reed/Tia Altinay/Khori Michelle Petinaud/Marisha Wallace

Suitors talk of love but it's an act

Merely meant to throw me

How could someone love me when in fact

They don't know me

They want my royal treasure

When all is said and done

It's time for a desperate measure

So I wonder

Why shouldn't I fly so far from here

I know the girl I might become here

Sad and confined and always locked behind these palace walls

Told to show devotion everyday

And not second guess it

If a new emotion comes my way

You suppress it

What would be your suggestion

Stand on your own two feet

And ask why a certain question keeps repeating

Why shouldn't I fly so far from here

I know the girl I might become here

Follow your heart or you might end up cold and callous

Love comes to those who go and find it

If you've a dream then stand behind it

Maybe there's more beyond these palace walls

What if I dared

What if I tried

Am I prepared for what's outside

Why shouldn't I fly so far from here

Something awaits beyond these palace walls

Something waits beyond these palace walls
