Fly

Hello brick wall my old friend

Are you ready to go toe to toe again?

My bruises have healed and

I feel like I'm ready for more

I know the time

And you told me the odds

But I don't wave flags and

I won't ask god for nothing

I'm on my own because

This is the place

Where the runway ends

And nobody knows

What's around the bend

This is the time when you look yourself right in the eye

And you don't say "if"

And you don't ask why

Cuz this is the time to fly

If I can build up just enough speed

I will try

And baby just watch me fly

Welcome heartbreak come right in

I've been expecting you

How has depression been?

And won't you give my warm regards to doubt

Cuz I forgot about him again

As I begin to pick up speed

But look out ahead

Cuz the bridge is out

And the crowd just stares but nothing

Will slow me down because

This is the place

Where the runway ends

And nobody knows

What's around the bend

This is the time when you look yourself right in the eye

And you don't say "if"

And you don't ask why

Cuz this is the time to fly

If I can build up just enough speed

I will try

And baby just watch me fly

And all that matters

When it's time to leave the ground

Is close your eyes

And don't look down

There's fresh air all around

And when the time is right

You'll open up your eyes

To find you've reached the other side

The sweetest tears you've ever cried

You will cry
