Fly

Shatter your keys.
I'll tear your driver's license apart.
We should stay here in Anson town.
None of my family don't know
I ran till morning light to let you go.
Would you give me a chance to leave you home?

Got a lump in my throat, there's a page where you wrote
"The world is cruel".
There's a stone with your name.
There's a picture in a frame,
and I tell you.

Smile,
like you did in the lawn.
Baby, you fly.
I don't tell a soul
where you go now, where you feel your place is.
Stay where no one else is.

Once you were a child.
Remember the days where the tales.
The breakfast, height and scales.
I guess I heard your voice went down like waterfall.
The echoes of you pacing down there in the hall.
Just say there's a chance to make you stay.
Stay.

And the pin on your tucker, I'll put it in your pocket.
Once, you gave it to me.
And your sleeve dropped your heart
as soon as it stopped,
and now you're free.

There's your 3 years old eyes.
There's all your trophies and prizes.
Swear I'll never let it turn to dust.
That's you, while you fly.

I'd broad a way to make you stay.
I'd extend the night, so you could sleep
to the top of your bent,
that would be me, while you fly.
