To left to me a striped fence
To me, this all does not make sense
What's two when all you need is one?
Who's to blame for the empty gun?
If all tears from the sky
Why do they fall from your eye?
Leave a sparkle that you see in dreams
What's to come when the grass don't turn green?
It's runnin' fast
Cannot slow
Sit and wonderin' where I'll go
Drift in head and lazy eyes
Hold me momma as I learn to fly on my own
♪
And if it tastes too good
It could be a lie
You ain't the apple of your momma's eye
Who needs a moon for the light?
Flip a switch and we're back to life
Now what's in the air?
Who's on the street?
And who's the pretty girl glaring at me?
Why's the sun shinin' off her hair?
Why now do I seem to care?
It's runnin' fast
It cannot slow
Sit and wonderin' where I'll go
Drift in head and lazy eyes
Hold me momma as I learn to fly on my own
♪
Now shake a left or take a right
Hope that there's no one in sight?
Do shadows really dance and gleam?
They all look pretty damn dark to me
And there's times the only thing I'd say we're in
While we fightin' till the bitter end
Cashin' in everything we know
Does dying rich determine where we go?
It's runnin' fast
It cannot slow
Sit and wonderin' where I'll go
Drift in head and lazy eyes
Hold me momma as I learn to fly
It's runnin' fast
It cannot slow
Sit and wonderin' where I'll go
Drift in head and lazy eyes
Hold me momma as I learn to fly on my own
On my own
Darling on my own
Darling on my own yeah
