I Fly Away

Lyrics

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 [Chorus] 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 [Chorus] 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... [Chorus] (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)
