"Fly" lyrics

"Fly"

Hello brick wall my old friend
Are you ready to go toe to toe again?
My bruises have healed and
I feel like I'm ready for more
I know the time
And you told me the odds
But I don't wave flags and
I won't ask God for nothing
I'm on my own because

This is the place
Where the runway ends
And nobody knows
What's around the bend
This is the time when you look yourself right in the eye
And you don't say "if"
And you don't ask why
Cause this is the time to fly
If I can build up just enough speed
I will try
And baby just watch me fly

Welcome heartbreak come right in
I've been expecting you
How has depression been?
And won't you give my warm regards to doubt
Cause I forgot about him again
As I begin to pick up speed
But look out ahead
Cause the bridge is out
And the crowd just stares but nothing
Will slow me down because

This is the place
Where the runway ends
And nobody knows
What's around the bend
This is the time when you look yourself right in the eye
And you don't say "if"
And you don't ask why
Cause this is the time to fly
If I can build up just enough speed
I will try
And baby just watch me fly

And all that matters
When it's time to leave the ground
Is close your eyes
And don't look down
There's fresh air all around
And when the time is right
You'll open up your eyes
To find you've reached the other side
The sweetest tears you've ever cried

You will cry
