Verse 1

Wings feel broken,
But when I look at them
They seem fine.
I know what I'm feelin'.
It's insane.

I know I ain't crazy (x3)

Chorus

They make me fly
Even though it hurts.
Don't care that I'm cryin'.
Think I'm overreactin'.
They make me fly
Until my wings burn;
But I don't wanna fly.
Why do I gotta fly?

Hook

I don't wanna fly.
Why do gotta fly?

Verse 2

Why are they surprised when
I run out of energy and fall?
Don't they know this pain
Is unbearable?

Told 'em I ain't crazy (x3)

Chorus

They make me fly
Even though it hurts.
Don't care that I'm cryin'.
Think I'm overreactin'.
They make me fly
Until my wings burn;
But I don't wanna fly.
Why do I gotta fly?

Hook

I don't wanna fly.
Why do gotta fly?

Bridge

All I hear is how great I gotta be.
My true desires nobody wants to see.
So for the sake of how great I gotta be
The me inside, she's cryin'.
The me inside, she's dyin'
But I seem fine so 

Chorus

They make me fly
Even though it hurts.
Don't care that I'm cryin'.
Think I'm overreactin'.
They make me fly
Until my wings burn;
But I don't wanna fly.
Why do I gotta fly?

Hook

I don't wanna fly.
Why do gotta fly?
I don't wanna fly.
Why do I gotta fly?
