You talk about freedom
But you lived your life like a bird in a cage
Couldn't get away

And you're still the only
The only one that you're thinking about
Don't you feel like reaching out

Sometimes I'm just like you
Don't have a single clue
But then I look again
And see all the lives that I wanna be in

I think that I've had enough time on the ground
And I'm ready to fly
Been stuck in a bottle of fear and I almost die
Just give me my wings and take all of these things
'Cause I'm ready to fly
This world can be a lonely place for you and I

I don't even know you
You're painting a picture that I've never seen
But I remember what has been

But I'm ok with this
The past goodbye I've kissed
I've learned so much from you
Mostly I've learned what not to do

I think that I've had enough time on the ground
And I'm ready to fly
Been stuck in a bottle of fear and I almost die
Just give me my wings and take all of these things
'Cause I'm ready to fly
This world can be a lonely place for you and I

Sometimes I'm just like you
Don't have a single clue
But then I look again
And see all the life that I wanna be in

I think that I've had enough time on the ground
And I'm ready to fly
Been stuck in a bottle of fear and I almost die
Just give me my wings and take all of these things
'Cause I'm ready to fly
This world can be a lonely place for you and I
