The tears of shattered hopes and dreams
ripple as the echo from my screams
bellows up from deep within my heart,

tearing all these healing wounds apart --
I can't confirm, I can't deny,
but what I'm feeling deep inside

has been in there for far too long,
the pain I'm feeling's far too strong!


It's time to let this go -
This has to let me go!


Tonight
I'll show myself that I can truly fly!
And all my self-loathing and misery can finally die!

This time
These feathered wings will take me to the sky,
where I can finally belong, where I can finally know why!


I have for ever known that this
is something I will never miss;

I have been grounded long enough;
the game is on, the gloves are off!
I'm breaking down these looming walls,

and what I've never seen before
is finally becoming clear,
I've gotta go, I can't stay here!


Tonight
I'll show myself that I can truly fly!

And all my self-loathing and misery can finally die!
This time
These feathered wings will take me to the sky,

where I can finally belong, where I can finally know why!

In this moonlit night

I've chosen to make my stand
I'll show myself once and for all
that flying is something I can.

I go to the edge of the cliff -
and I won't run.
There are no whats or ifs,

so I
jump.


Tonight
I'll show myself that I can truly fly!
And all my self-loathing and misery can finally die!

This time
These feathered wings will take me to the sky,
where I can finally belong, where I can finally know why!


I feel the air rush past;
the wind is soaring by

I close my eyes and think:
this is how it feels to fly.
And now I get away...

Yeah, now I get away...
Yeah, now I get away!
Yeah, now I get away from the ground!
