Wildflowers
The hills were alive with wildflowers
And i was as wild, even wilder than they
For at least i could run, they just died in the sun
And i refused to just wither in place
Just a wild mountain rose, needing freedom to grow
So i ran fearing not where i'd go
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow
And the flowers i knew in the fields where i grew
Were content to be lost in the crowd
They were common and close, i had no room for growth
I wanted so much to branch out
I uprooted myself from home ground and left
Took my dreams and i took to the road
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow
I grew up fast and wild and i never felt right
In a garden so different from me
I just never belonged, i just longed to be gone
So the garden, one day, set me free
Hitched a ride with the wind and since he was my friend
I just let him decide where we'd go
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow
