lyrics

In the dark here I crawl through a maze of uncertainty
As I search for the ever-distant light
I have heard there's a path that will lead to prosperity
And it helps to get me through the night

But as I linger here I wonder what the world is like above
And in my mind I see the endless sky that I've been dreaming of

Oh, if I could leave this place, and float away

If I could fly, I'd cast away the burdens of my mind
I'd soar away and leave it all behind
I'd finally be free to see the sky

Held down by the weight of all this hypocrisy
Hungry jaws that will never have enough
I'll climb my way out of this monotony
And catch a glimpse of the sky above

But as I linger here, I dream about a life that's free from chains
And in my ears I hear them whisper that there is no other way

If I could fly, I'd cast away the burdens of my mind
I'd soar away and leave it all behind
I'd finally be free to see the sky
Oh, if I could fly, I'd cast away the burdens of my mind
And I could find a better place to hide
Somewhere unfamiliar where I float above the world

If I could fly, I'd cast away the burdens of my mind
I'd soar away and leave it all behind
I'd finally be free to see the sky
Oh, if I could fly, I'd cast away the burdens of my mind
And I could find a better place to hide
Somewhere unfamiliar where I float above the world

If I could fly, I'd reach above the clouds that keep me blind
I'd breathe in what it is to be alive
I'd have more than I needed to survive
Oh, if I could fly, I'd grasp ahold the joy that I've denied
And I could find a better place to hide
Somewhere unfamiliar where I float above the world
