learning to fly

learning to fly

A Chapter by hannah

lights shining bright
in the sky, tonight
i think i have finally
reached the stars
cause it's been a long path
a twisting road
a harder way to go
road less travelled
oh, i know, i know

i'm learning to fly
picking up these wings
and soon i'll soar
and i always want more
i see the galaxy around me
i'm surrounded by universe
a drop of moonlight
could lead me to the sunlight
oh, i'm learning to fly

some days i feel real down
let everything push me to the ground
can't see the positive side of anything
turn the music up loud, block out everything
you should know that no matter what i do
always seems like there's something more
can't ever be the perfect girl
that i wanna be
oh, they say you can't be perfect

and i'm learning to fly
picking up these wings
and soon i'll soar
and i always want more
i find myself in a starlit wonderland
this place is celestial,
cause here i know where to go
know what i'm supposed to do
oh, i'm learning to fly

they can say what they wanna say
i'm not even listening
these tears have turned to rage
fire in my eyes won't go away
you've ruled over me for too long
gonna shut you out, be myself
my broken wings, my sad smile
yeah, i've changed now
oh, i know who i am

i'm learning to fly
picking up these wings
and soon i'll soar
i always want more
spinning round and round in a new white dress
i'm dancing alone but i'm dancing free
don't care who's watching me
and i'll let all of this distress melt away
oh, i'm learning to fly

sometimes i'm not sure what to do
look around, but i can't look back
make a list of things i have to remember
learn from my past
cause just because i don't know how to
i'm still moving forward, gotta look forward
singing all the same songs
but now they have a different meaning
oh, i don't know where i'm going

but i'm learning to fly
picking up these wings
and soon i'll soar
and i always want more
ooh, i'll find a way to dance when it hurts
smile when i really want to cry
get back up when i fall down, burn out
see the stars in the sky when it's light
oh, i'm learning to fly
