Shall I try and fly away,
Ride off on the wings of a new day?
Reach for the skies and touch the clouds,
Soaring higher and higher above unbelieving crowds?
We know we are Icarus flying towards the sun,
And that we may all fall down one by one.
But we take our chances,
Knowing full well our circumstances.
Maybe that's why we aim to fly,
So that we are one day able to say goodbye.
Leave behind the things tying us down,
And rise above our heartaches and breakdowns.
So let us get away,
Forget all the pain of yesterday.
When our feet no longer touch the ground,
That is when we'll finally be unbound
So spread you hidden wings and fly,
Dive into this sapphire sky.
Though harsh winds and doubt you'll push through,
And up in the clouds we'll all be waiting for you
