Everything seems pointless
It all crams in my head
Everybody seems so hollow
Why do I live amongst the dead
I walk right through the wasteland
Somehow I've lived here all my life
Got lost in petty beauty
Awakening cuts like a knife

I thought my roots were spread out
It seems they never really grew
Inside I thought I had connections
I see I've only got a few
They all grew up beside me
But when I looked they weren't there
Perhaps when I finally leave this place
Maybe I'll look back and not care

Sometimes I want to fly away
I see no reasons why I'd stay
When blazing sunshine turns to gray
It seems nobody knows just what to say
Sometimes I want to fly away
I see no reasons why I'd stay
When blazing sunshine turns to gray
It seems nobody knows just what to say

Everything burns inside me
All of the memories that I grew
Somehow my hearts been set on fire
Now that it's black what do I do
Sometimes I try to bring the light back
But it's gone out just like the flames
Only I see the ashes rising
Free from my mind just like their names

Sometimes I want to fly away
I see no reasons why I'd stay
When blazing sunshine turns to gray
It seems nobody knows just what to say
Sometimes I want to fly away
I see no reasons why I'd stay
When blazing sunshine turns to gray
It seems nobody knows just what to say

I never really thought of leaving
Illusions held me in their grip
I always thought I'd live here happy
But when I looked around things rocked the ship
I never really thought of sailing
I never thought that I'd explore
If somebody had tried to force me
I would have kicked them out the door

Nobody thinks that I am serious
Nobody wants to think it's true
Everyone wants me to be happy
But they don't like what I've got to do
Inside I'm happy that they want me
Inside I'm happy that they're there
Some people live amongst the zombies
Though far away I'll always care

Sometimes I want to fly away
I see no reasons why I'd stay
When blazing sunshine turns to gray
It seems nobody knows just what to say
Sometimes I want to fly away
I see no reasons why I'd stay
When blazing sunshine turns to gray
It seems nobody knows just what to say

Everything seems so scary
All of the choices that I'd made
I never dreamed of ever making
This kind of massive escapade
I never thought my home would move away
But now I know it in my heart
They say that home is where the heart is
I guess I knew that from the start

I know I'm going to fly away
I love the reasons I could stay
My love will never go astray
I know I'll think of them every day
I know I'm going to fly away
I love the reasons I could stay
My love will never go astray
I know I'll think of them every day
It's been a little while since I've written a song, and I've been itching to write one. I just havn't been able to come up with anything that I liked, until now. It's a little personal, but I like to think that a lot of people can relate to it. I'm not going to go into depth on this one, because I feel it explains itself rather well.

As always, I hope you enjoy it! :iconsillycloudplz:
