I think everyday about flying away
To a place where I could sit and listen to the trees sway
Where the dead silence would push everyone away
I would be alone at last
By myself to think and be free
This is where I want to be
But I bring myself back to reality
In that black hole where I lay
Motionless and unable to speak
I need to leave, for I wish to fly away
Away from the tears and the pain
Away from the hurt and hate
But there’s something holding me back
From my hopes and my dreams
It’s everything I have that I don’t want to lose
Like a little feather under a rock, I am stuck
I am a flightless bird
With the weight of the world on my shoulders
I am surrounded by people, yet I feel completely alone
I wish to fly away
To find out who I am, who I want to be
Someday I will find my way back home
But as of right now, I wish to fly away
And be free
