| 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
|
| Cuz 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
|
| Cuz I forgot about him again
|
| As I begin to pick up speed
|
| But look out ahead
|
| Cuz 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
|
| Cuz 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 |
