Fly Away


Somehow it all must change,

 

We can't just look through windowpanes.

 

The sky is perfectly in reach

 

Since they invented aeroplanes.

 

 

Fly away-

 

Don't just view life through the branches.

 

Chase stars-

 

Refuse to stay under the streetlights.

 

 

A heart does not pump only blood,

 

But dreams and memories of love.

 

That fill up hollow empty souls-

 

Believe you're more than just a ghost.

 

 

Sail away-

 

The shore is not where you'll be safe.

 

Run far-

 

Don't be content with where you are.
