I've been scared and lonely
I've asked myself is something wrong with you
my girlfriend told me
I need some time alone to deal with issues

but something makes me carry on
it's difficult to understand
why I always wanna fly

(Chorus) 2x:

I do it for the drugs
I do it just to feel alive
I do it for the love
that I get from the bottom of a bottle

you always call me
and ask me how I make it through the day
I'm always fallin'
I guess it's just god's way of making me pay

but something makes me carry on
it's difficult to understand,
Why I always wanna fly

(Chorus)

when I, I wonder why I try
and I, I wonder why I bother
and I, I wonder why I cry
why I, I go through all this trouble

(Chorus)
