I can't move for my roots go deep I call it death - others call it sleep I know that I'm well past my prime And it's just a matter of time One day the axe will have its way And send me to an earthy grave I'll be dismembered and set alight To some strangers delight When you trade in all your cheer for sorrow When you feel like you don't have tomorrow When you steal and yet you claim to borrow Your paper mountains reach so high But I hope you know how to fly Fly Fly I can't move for my roots go deep I call it death - others call it sleep I know that I'm well past my prime And it's just a matter of time One day the axe will have its way And send me to an earthy grave I'll be dismembered and set alight To some strangers delight To help him sleep at night When you trade in all your cheer for sorrow When you feel like you don't have tomorrow When you steal and yet you claim to borrow Your paper mountains reach so high But I hope you know how to fly One day you'll learn You'll be forced to watch them burn Fly Fly It takes a lifetime to climb to the top - but only seconds to hit the bottom It takes a lifetime to find solutions - but only seconds to cause the problem It takes a lifetime to climb to the top - but only seconds to hit the bottom It takes a lifetime to find solutions Oh where are the solutions When you trade in all your cheer for sorrow When you feel like you don't have tomorrow - no When you steal and yet you claim to borrow Your paper mountains reach so high But I hope you know how to fly Fly Fly
