The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
That night i've been in every single street in this town
And after that i took another round
I was trying to get wasted in this abandoned station
I thought i could trick myself away
I was wrong and i acted like a stupid kid
And i know i haven't changed
I try to be brave but i wasn't okay
I wasn't okay, not at all
I kept it all inside, and began to fall
Yeah, once upon a time
Yeah, there was a boy who wanted to fly
Yeah, one day he died trying
Yeah, he said it was worth a try
Good morning everybody
Oh how much i need to do
I got to save the world and you know the rules
I finally come back home
It's getting harder all the time
To get up in the morning
You know i'm just trying to survive
I got to take over my mountain and build up new bases
Or i'm gonna get stuck in the mud
I gotta get out, it's so empty here without you
And i'm scared that you're not coming back
My friends, i need you now so i wouldn't feel so lonely
Lord, please give me something else to think about
Yeah, once upon a time
Yeah, there was a boy who wanted to fly
Yeah, one day he died trying
Yeah, he said it was worth a try
Good morning everybody
Oh how much i need to do
I got to save the world and you know the rules
I finally come back home
Oh yeah! woo-oo! hey!
