Paint a picture of yourself,
Make the lines disappear,
You wish it was as easy in real life,
Paint a smile upon your face,
And wipe away the tears,
It's ok not to be perfect, all of the time,

Crumpled paper on the floor,
Cigarrette smoke in your eyes,
And coffee stains still remain from the previous night,
Live your life like in the plan,
All drawn out for you,
Lock it up and throw away the key,

Find yourself stuck in a rut,
You just cannot escape,
Looking outside wide eyed,
Clutching at the gate,
Free your mind and empty all the,
Thoughts in your head,
If you feel like flying,
Just go ahead,

The resonating beeps and rings,
Still fresh in your ears,
You wish it would all just disappear,
Sleep's another luxury,
You just cannot afford,
But the price you pay to stay awake makes no sense at all,

Find yourself stuck in a rut,
You just cannot escape,
Looking outside wide eyed,
Clutching at the gate,
Free your mind and empty all the,
Thoughts in your head,
If you feel like flying,
Just go ahead,

Free your mind, Free your head,
If you feel like flying just go ahead...
