When will we fly

Our wings are bound

We look at the sky

We don't look around

Then our wings are free

We soar in the air

But through blinding joy, we don't see

That we're alone over there

Our homes left behind

In one of those trees

Then no matter how hard we find

We won't find what we need

A place with childish memories

A place with a cherished past

Cages turned sanctuaries

It all happened so fast

We didn't stop to smell the roses

We didn't sing, we didn't tweet

Now I'll make sure to remember the moments

Of the next time we meet

I've now learnt how to fight

I won't let my offspring go there

Because once you take flight

There's no home in the air
