Someday I'll be so far away from all of you
All this and spoken ridicule
You'll never rule my life
Like the way that you used to
I find I am much better off out on my own
Maybe a house but not a home
You'll wake to find I've changed my mind
I'm sorry but this bird has flown
This bird has flown
So let these fools run free
To be the ones they want to be
These chains, they're falling off all over me
My friends, I hope you get to see
That I don't need you, please
And empty cold apologies
Your friends just haven't been
Real friends to me, it's time
For me to spread my wings
I feel fine and feeling fine is good enough
I'm alone and though it may be rough
I can't lie, I'm free to fly, I don't belong to anyone
Had a friend and I put you on a pedestal
I may be dumb but I'm no fool
So keep your throne, it's all you want
And all that you'll ever know
This bird has flown
So let these fools run free
To be the ones they want to be
These chains, they're falling off all over me
My friends, I hope you get to see
That I don't need you, please
And empty cold apologies
Your friends just haven't been
Real friends to me, it's time
For me to spread my wings
♪
You will never be
Able to exam me
And clip these wings
And I know that
All that I can see
Is the open sky
In front of me
♪
So let these fools run free
To be the ones they want to be
These chains, they're falling off all over me
My friends, I hope you get to see
That I don't need you, please
And empty cold apologies
Your friends just haven't been
Real friends to me, it's time
For me to spread my wings
