My fairytale started
With once upon a time
But it was no happily ever after
Prince Charming started
drowning himself
In whisky and Wine
His arms once held me tight
Now he’s out all night
Gripping 90 proof
When he does stumble in
He’s a time bomb ticking
I’m walking a tightrope
Holding my breath, praying
I don’t light the fuse
Feeling empty as his bottle
Belittled from his lies
He had me believing
Only beautiful girls can fly

But I am gonna fly
With the strength I have inside
I’m gonna spread my wings
And break free from the lies
I’m gonna fly
Fly so high
I’ll never fear dark skies
I’m gonna fly

To put on a pretty face
The weight of his words
I buried deep inside
Told myself to love him
For the man that he was
But Like my dreams of a life
With white picket fences
He tore my heart into pieces
But broken hearts heal stronger
And Out of the clashes
I will rise…..
Spread my wings and fly

I am gonna fly
With the strength I have inside
I’m gonna spread my wings
Break free from the lies
I’m gonna fly
Fly so high
I’ll never fear dark skies
I’m gonna fly
When storm clouds roll in
I won’t need a knight in shining armor
Or a hero to save the day
Cause I’ve lived through hell
And fought my way out
every drinking day
I am gonna fly
With the strength I have inside
I’m gonna spread my wings
Break free from the lies
I’m gonna fly
Fly so high
I’ll never fear dark skies
I’m gonna fly
I’ll never fear dark skies
I’m gonna fly
