Fly away little bird
Fly away to a better place
Where you will soar through the sky
In the wide open space
Fly away to live out all your hopes and dreams
Enter the real world
Of wondrous things
Through the dark clouds and over the rainbows
Fly away to destinations unknown
Fly away to discover yourself
And embrace what you find
Fly away to create
An otherworldly kind
A kind of yourself that you never knew
Until you left house and flew
Flew out with the air
As your old life tears
And reattaches itself
To form a new being
Fly away little bird
Fly away

I'm leaving for college soon and I'm starting to feel like the bird who must fly away
