lyrics

Don't call me the prodigal son,
Because I ain't coming back.
I'll make it on my own.
Let me walk my own path.
Don't worry about me,
I've got everything I need.

I want to see the world through my own eyes,
Climb a mountain to see the sky,
Across the stars on the other side

One of these days I won't be around,
I'll rip my roots up from the ground,
With wings of feathers, string and wax,
I'll fly toward the sun,
Until the melt from my back.

Don't tell me there's nothing left to find,
Nothing more than this.
I'll stumble and I'll fall,
But I'll find the strength to carry on.

One of these days I won't be around,
I'll rip my roots up from the ground,
With wings of feathers, string and wax,
I'll fly toward the sun,
Until the melt from my back.
