I wish I could fly away.

Sometimes, I wish I could fly away.

To someplace where I could stay.

A place where I can be happy,

and not worry about the people around me.

Sometimes, I wish I could fly away.

The world has so many paths, leading me "astray"

That's what my parents would say

Sometimes, I wish I could fly away.

Trying to keep the violent thoughts at bay

Good thoughts I try to convey

Hoping the two can meet halfway.

Sometimes, I want to fly away.

My world is different shades of gray.

I constantly feel like I'm stuck at a gateway

Waiting on the positive rays.

Sometimes, I fly away.

Seeing a new place of play

A place I won't be betrayed

A place that never has a rainy day.

Where I can be a happy little runaway.

So I will wait, until the day I can fly away.
