(aaaaah-haaaaah-aaaaah) Packing up the heavy chest of hopes they drew for me
Every promise framed in gold,
a quiet, gold-leaf key
But the lock is rusted shut and I can't breathe inside
Torn between their expectations and the rising tide
I'm breaking the mold
(breaking it down)
Leaving the stories I was told
Take this life
Throw it away
Leave it behind
Watch me, watch me fly (Fly)
Standing on the county line,
the rear view starts to fade
No more living in the shadow of the plans they made
I can hear the sirens calling,
singing from the deep
This is not a broken promise that I have to keep
Take this life
Throw it away
Leave it behind
Watch me, watch me fly (Fly)
Watch me fly (aaaaah-haaaaah)
