This song was the product of a request from a friend of mine who is currently writing a book and wanted a song to go along with it.

lyrics

Don't be my safety net
Don't be my ambulance when I'm not hurt
Don't be the chain that holds me from the world

Don't be my life jacket
Don't be my lamp in the daytime
Don't be my cigarette,
Unless you're willing to give up the light

You've got to let go of the leash
At one point or another
You're got to let me out of reach
My dad and mother
You can't keep me in this prison for long
I'll disappear.
