Lately life's been good and that's alright with me
All the little things, even the daily monotony
It's all good

But soon things will all come to an end
I'll have to leave the life I love and say goodbye to all my friends
And I tell myself what I want to hear

That I no longer fear,
Leaving here


Waking up and going to school doesn't bother me
But when it's all said and done things can only be bitter sweet
'Cause when it's done

So many broken hearts and troubled apologies
So many covered lies and missed opportunities
And I tell myself what I want to hear

That I no longer fear,
Leaving here


In a couple of years, everything I know will change
I'll have to leave my old life behind and begin to feel the pain
And I know

The time has come to spread my wings and fly
But I'd rather lay in bed all day and watch airplanes in the sky
And I tell myself what I want to hear

That I no longer fear,
Leaving here
