I Fly Away
And on the day that I was born
My mom and dad were overjoyed
They wrapped me in their arms
Took me home to meet my world
A painted room to call my own
A place where nothing could go wrong
Where they could build their borders
That I never would escape
But I don't need no one to break me out of here
I fly away, (I fly away)
When the world is burning down
I am up above the clouds
I fly away, (I fly away)
Letting go and breathing in
I float into the golden heart of love again
(I fly away, I fly away, I fly away)
As adolescence waved goobye
I searched the world behind my eyes
A permanent oasis
In the middle of a war
Now mom is taking happy pills
And dad is drowning in his bills
My sister went to rehab
For the third time in a year
But I don't need to pill to help me disappear
I fly away, (I fly away)
When the world is burning down
I am up above the clouds
I fly away, (I fly away)
Letting go and breathing in
I float into the golden heart of love again
And if you believe I'm less than I was meant to be
Don't be deceived, I'm hoping I was meant to be
Tell me you're wrong
And when you see the silent one
Know I am more than skin and bone
I am spirit, I am sound
I am floating off the ground
The ground, the ground
To fly along...
I fly away, (I fly away)
When the world is burning down
I am up above the clouds
I fly away, (I fly away)
Letting go and breathing in
I float into the golden heart of love again
I fly away
(Hey ma mama, away, oh...)
Letting go and breathing in
I float into the golden heart of love again
I float into the golden heart of love again
(Hey ma mama, away, oh
Hey ma mama, away, oh)
My mom and dad were overjoyed
They wrapped me in their arms
Took me home to meet my world
A painted room to call my own
A place where nothing could go wrong
Where they could build their borders
That I never would escape
But I don't need no one to break me out of here
I fly away, (I fly away)
When the world is burning down
I am up above the clouds
I fly away, (I fly away)
Letting go and breathing in
I float into the golden heart of love again
(I fly away, I fly away, I fly away)
As adolescence waved goobye
I searched the world behind my eyes
A permanent oasis
In the middle of a war
Now mom is taking happy pills
And dad is drowning in his bills
My sister went to rehab
For the third time in a year
But I don't need to pill to help me disappear
I fly away, (I fly away)
When the world is burning down
I am up above the clouds
I fly away, (I fly away)
Letting go and breathing in
I float into the golden heart of love again
And if you believe I'm less than I was meant to be
Don't be deceived, I'm hoping I was meant to be
Tell me you're wrong
And when you see the silent one
Know I am more than skin and bone
I am spirit, I am sound
I am floating off the ground
The ground, the ground
To fly along...
I fly away, (I fly away)
When the world is burning down
I am up above the clouds
I fly away, (I fly away)
Letting go and breathing in
I float into the golden heart of love again
I fly away
(Hey ma mama, away, oh...)
Letting go and breathing in
I float into the golden heart of love again
I float into the golden heart of love again
(Hey ma mama, away, oh
Hey ma mama, away, oh)
