Lyrics
I woke up this lazy morning
The skies were cloudy and grey
Stared at the walls around me
So tired and nearly insane
This can't go on, just set me free
So I can fly and spread my wings
Nowhere to run and there's nowhere to hide
We're going in circles and losing our minds
Hear what I'm saying look into my eyes
No more illusions so just say goodbye
When we first met
Our world was filled with innocence
But you have changed since then
and gave me emptiness
This can't go on, just set me free
So I can fly and spread my wings (Chorus)
We're growing apart now
Different places, people and dreams
A lifetime of memories
Is all that’s left between you and me
