Why should I stick around when no one understands me?
Why should I stick around when no one really cares?
Why should I stick around? I hate the walls around me
Why should I stick around? It's just like I'm not there

I wish that I could fly
Why do I even try?
When everything I've ever known
Is kissing me goodbye

I wish that I could fly
I'd take you there with me
Across the sky, beneath the veil
We all want to be free

Why should I stick around? I know I don't belong here
Why should I stick around? It'll never be the same
Why should I stick around? Nothing ever grows here
Why should I stick around? I'm tired of this game

I wish that I could fly
Why do I even try?
When everything I've ever known
Is kissing me goodbye

I wish that I could fly
I'd take you there with me
Across the sky, beneath the veil
We all want to be free

Just get away, get away, get away, get away
Get away, get away
Get away from me
Just get away, get away, get away, get away
Get away from me
Stay the fuck away from me

Why should I stick around when someone might get hurt?
Why should I stick around when everything is shit? Oh
Why should I stick around when no one understands me?
Why should I stick around when, oh

(I know there's something better for me)

I wish that I could fly
Why do I even try?
When everything I've ever known
Is kissing me goodbye

I wish that I could fly
I'd take you there with me
Across the sky, beneath the veil
We all want to be free

Just get away, get away, get away, get away
Get away, get away
Get away from me
Just get away, get away, get away, get away
Get away from me
Stay the fuck away from me
