Wings to Fly
(Verse 1)
Another alarm, the same grey morning light
Got the same old feeling, tangled up and tight
Scrollin' through the news, just fuelin' up the fire
World's got its own agenda, draggin' me down lower
Gotta plaster on a smile, put the headphones on
Pretend that everything's alright 'til the day is done
But underneath the surface, there's a pressure buildin' slow
Ready to blow the roof off, ready to just go.
(Pre-Chorus)
I'm sick of the gravity, the weight upon my chest
Tired of all the tests, just wanna put it to rest.
(Chorus)
Sometimes I wish that I could just grow wings and turn into a bird,
Maybe an eagle, or a Phoenix, then I really would not have to deal with it,
Deal with this, or wade through the chaos and shit, of this fucking life,
I wish I could just flyyyy, yeah just sprout wings and flyyyy, yeah uhuh!
(Verse 2)
See the people rushin', blinders on their eyes
Chasing paper dreams beneath polluted skies
Every interaction, feels like an uphill fight
Just tryin' to keep my balance, standin' in the light
Got bills piled up high, and worries stackin' fast
How long can I hold on before I finally crash?
Hear the whispers and the judgments, the constant, dull refrain
It's enough to drive a saint insane.
(Pre-Chorus)
I'm sick of the gravity, the weight upon my chest
Tired of all the tests, just wanna put it to rest.
(Chorus)
Sometimes I wish that I could just grow wings and turn into a bird,
Maybe an eagle, or a Phoenix, then I really would not have to deal with it,
Deal with this, or wade through the chaos and shit, of this fucking life,
I wish I could just flyyyy, yeah just sprout wings and flyyyy, yeah uhuh!
(Bridge)
Imagine the perspective, lookin' down so small
Seeing all the problems disappear below the wall
No traffic jams, no deadlines, no petty, human strife
Just riding on the thermal currents of a better life.
Phoenix rising from the ashes, clean slate, brand new start,
Tearin' through the atmosphere, leavin' all the darkness, leavin' all the heartache, yeah.
(Guitar Solo - Energetic, soaring, and slightly frantic)
(Chorus)
Sometimes I wish that I could just grow wings and turn into a bird,
Maybe an eagle, or a Phoenix, then I really would not have to deal with it,
Deal with this, or wade through the chaos and shit, of this fucking life,
I wish I could just flyyyy, yeah just sprout wings and flyyyy, yeah uhuh!
(Outro)
Sprout wings and fly...
Flyyyy...
Yeah, I wish I could just fly...
Gonna keep my eyes up to the sky...
'Til I finally get my wings...
(Fade out)
