I have a one way ticket
and a heap of dreams inside a suitcase
I say goodbye to my parents
I'm so afraid and I have such a will to live.
I'll spread my wings and fly endlessly
so I can escape and find my freedom
far away from here, far away from here.
A guitar, my childhood,
school and first time
friends I haven't seen in a while,
they're all behind me now.
A cigarette, a song
pictures of my first love
memories in my room
they're all behind me now.
They're all behind me now
they're all behind me, behind me
I'm speechless1 and I have a map
that'll take me to another country.
The attempt behind a letter, a story
and I have such a will to live
I'll spread my wings and fly endlessly
so I can escape and find my freedom
far away from here, far away from here.
A guitar, my childhood,
school and first time
friends I haven't seen in a while,
they're all behind me now.
A cigarette, a song
pictures of my first love
memories in my room
they're all behind me now.
They're all behind me now
they're all behind me, behind me
I'm speechless and I have a map
that'll take me to another country.
A guitar, my childhood,
school and first time
friends I haven't seen in a while,
they're all behind me now.
A cigarette, a song
pictures of my first love
memories in my room
they're all behind me now.
A guitar, my childhood,
school and first time
friends I haven't seen in a while,
they're all behind me now.
A cigarette, a song
pictures of my first love
memories in my room
they're all behind me now
A guitar, my childhood!
