I hate being mad!
I hate being frustrated!
I hate being sad!
Life is overrated!
So I go outside,
to climb a mountain,
or hitch a ride,
but it's all too common!
So I climb my ladder
to the top of my roof;
forget all the glamor
forget being a goof!
There's only one way to end it all
So I bend my legs and jump
but I never fall
never hit a bump...
I open my eyes and see
the ground below me
never before could I believe
I AM FLYING!
I feel the wind!
I open my arms!
and I smile wide!
I see many small farms!
I speed up,
I twist, and turn!
I'm now over Europe!
Oh, but I want to see Saturn!
I aim up high,
rush to space,
grin as I fly,
with happiness shown upon my face.
...here I am,
out in space.
oh, yes ma'am.
beauty you can not encase.
Spinning wildly,
laughing hard,
thinking mildly,
and let down my gaurd.
I am free.
so nice to say...
I AM FREE!
and in space I will stay.
For out in space,
I can be me,
dance, fly, and play.
and no one can see.
I AM FLYING FREE!
