Free as a bird,it's the next best thing to be.
Free as a bird.
Home, home and dry,
like a homing bird I'll fly
as a bird on wings.
Whatever happened to
the life that we once knew?
Can we really live without each other?
Where did we lose the touch
that seemed to mean so much?
It always made me feel so...
Free as a bird,
it's the next best thing to be.
Free as a bird.

So... there's a new tattoo I want. I've decided upon a birdcage with the door open and a little birdy flying free. For people who know me, the reasons are obvious. But for everyone else, I'll fill you in.

Basically, I've led a sheltered life. My parents were and are ultra conservative and I never got to get out much as a kid. I always got that sense of being in a cage, especially when my mother wouldn't let me attend other little kids' birthday parties just because she didn't like their family. I guess she was just doing what she thought was best, and trying to protect me. But I just wanted to be free. I'm a free spirit, a free soul. There's no keeping me back, because I will just find a way out, a way to be free. Free as a bird.

Haha, and so that's why I want this tattoo. It's very fitting, actually it fits me like a glove and I'm in love with this new idea. I can't wait to get it! I'm definitely going to brainstorm and tweek it a little bit. I was thinking maybe lyrics from above song (just the free as a bird part) like on a ribbon or something. I think I like the cage in the center of the back though. But I definitely want a different bird than the one in this picture, and maybe bigger.
