Fly lyrics

(Fiona Apple Drumset intro)

[Verse 1]

Staring out the window
At the telephone wire
The feeling of freedom
Is a common desire
Imagine the birds
Up in the sky
Every day they wake up
And they get to fly

[Pre-Chorus]

And Ooooh
Maybe it's all in my head
And Ooooh
Four P.M. in my bed

[Chorus]

Maybe freedom's out of reach or it's out there for each
And everyone who just wants to run
Maybe freedom's just a word and nobody is sure
If they can't kick off their shoes and have fun
[Verse 2]

'Cuz people around me are cold as stone
Everyone is numb to being alone
Chained to their own lives
Acting like they're hypnotized
Make me wanna stop this train

[Chorus]

Maybe freedom's out of reach or it's out there for each
And everyone who just wants to run
Maybe freedom's just a word and nobody is sure
If they can't kick off their shoes and have fun

Maybe freedom's out of reach or it's out there for each
And everyone who just wants to run
Maybe freedom's just a word and nobody is sure
If they can't kick off their shoes and have fun

[Breakdown]

I can live for today
Or I can pave my way
Do it just for kicks
Or 'cuz you can't take it
You can live for today
Or you can pave your way
Life is such a chore
I can't take it anymore

*Blegh*

[Instrumental Interlude]

*Arf Arf*

[Chorus]

Maybe freedom's out of reach or it's out there for each
And everyone who just wants to run
Maybe freedom's just a word and nobody is sure
If they can't kick off their shoes and have fun

Maybe freedom's out of reach or it's out there for each
And everyone who just wants to run
Maybe freedom's just a word and nobody is sure
If they can't kick off their shoes and have fun

[Outro]

Ooooh
Whoaaa
Whoaaa
Whoaaa
