"But, What If I Fly?" lyrics

They say the sun is golden
Is it like the bars that make my cage?
'Cause in the dark I'm hoping
I'd like to see one day
And even if it burns me
At least I got to pick my pain
And write a different story
About the girl who got away

I'm on the edge, in my shadow I see
The knives in my back look like wings

Maybe it's a blind leap of faith
I'm running out of time to escape
Maybe I'll fall out the sky
But, what if I fly?
Thinking that the door was a wall
I guess I had the key after all
Maybe I'll fall out the sky
But, what if I fly?

They say the sea it glimmers
Is it like the silver on my chains?
In my endless winter
Will spring come today?
Even if it drowns me
I couldn't pick a better grave
And they would call my story
The girl who tried to get away

Maybe it's a blind leap of faith
I'm running out of time to escape
Maybe I'll fall out the sky
But, what if I fly?
Thinking that the door was a wall
I guess I had the key after all
Maybe I'll fall out the sky
But, what if I fly?

Maybe it's a blind leap of faith
I'm running out of time to escape
Maybe I'll fall out the sky
But, what if I fly?
Maybe they'll all say I fell
From heaven into hell
Maybe I'm a fool to try
But what if I fly?

Maybe it's a blind leap of faith
I'm running out of time to escape
Maybe I'll fall out the sky
But, what if I fly?
Thinking that the door was a wall
I guess I had the key after all
Maybe I'll fall out the sky
But, what if I fly?
