[Verse 1] I packed my hurt in a blue drawstring bag Put your last text in my coat Left that key in the bowl by the sink Let the whole thing drift like smoke Your name still rings in the hallway Like a glass I never meant to break But I’m tired of circling this room Tired of giving more than I take [Pre-Chorus] So I breathe in deep Let it shake me loose One more step Then I’m through with the noose [Chorus] Fly away, fly away I’m not staying here today Fly away, fly away Watch me turn my face to the gray I’m light enough I’m strong enough I’m done being held this way Fly away, fly away Yeah, I’m flying away [Verse 2] I left your hoodie on the back chair Your receipts on the counter line Took the bus past the old corner store Where we wasted all our time There’s a scar on the side of my heart Where I used to keep your hold Now I’m learning how to carry myself Out of winter and into gold [Pre-Chorus] So I breathe in deep Let it shake me loose One more step Then I’m through with the noose [Chorus] Fly away, fly away I’m not staying here today Fly away, fly away Watch me turn my face to the gray I’m light enough I’m strong enough I’m done being held this way Fly away, fly away Yeah, I’m flying away [Bridge] If I look back, I might bend So I keep my eyes on the bend ahead No more waiting for your hand No more sleeping where I bled [Final Chorus] Fly away, fly away I’m not staying here today Fly away, fly away Watch me turn my face to the gray I’m light enough I’m strong enough I’m done being held this way Fly away, fly away Yeah, I’m flying away
