[Verse 1]
I don't wanna live without living
I don't wanna wear a disguise
I don't wanna keep on pretending
Just living a lie
Every day the pressure is building
Every night I'm howling at the moon
Feeling like the wolves are just closing in
What can I do?
[Chorus]
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
[Verse 2]
None of us is born to be prisoners
But some of us end up in a cell
What if we were born to be a witness
Living is the only way to tell
[Chorus]
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
And let me dream, let me dream, let me dream
I can be who I wanna be
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how high I can go
[Bridge]
Funny thing is
Make a wish and
Hope it counts for something
Standing here
And I'm looking down
Not afraid to fall
[Chorus]
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
And let me dream, let me dream, let me dream
I can be who I wanna be
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how high I can go
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
And let me dream, let me dream, let me dream
I can be who I wanna be
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how high I can go
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
[Outro]
And let me dream, let me dream, let me dream
I can be who I wanna be
I don't wanna live without living
I don't wanna wear a disguise
I don't wanna keep on pretending
Just living a lie
Every day the pressure is building
Every night I'm howling at the moon
Feeling like the wolves are just closing in
What can I do?
[Chorus]
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
[Verse 2]
None of us is born to be prisoners
But some of us end up in a cell
What if we were born to be a witness
Living is the only way to tell
[Chorus]
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
And let me dream, let me dream, let me dream
I can be who I wanna be
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how high I can go
[Bridge]
Funny thing is
Make a wish and
Hope it counts for something
Standing here
And I'm looking down
Not afraid to fall
[Chorus]
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
And let me dream, let me dream, let me dream
I can be who I wanna be
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how high I can go
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
And let me dream, let me dream, let me dream
I can be who I wanna be
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how high I can go
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
[Outro]
And let me dream, let me dream, let me dream
I can be who I wanna be
