I Want To Know
Trail Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I want to fly, even if I don't know how
I want to fly, even if I have no wings
I want to get out of here
The hole is too deep, to climb myself out
So I want to fly
Fly my way out
I want to fly, cause I'm too deep down
Why? Is my head always spinning around
I want to fly, even if I don't know how
I want to fly, even if I have no wings
I been down here for way too long
It's too deep, I must fly
Fly away
Fly away like bird
The days keep going and I'm still
Here
I tried to scream, but I'm way too deep
I look up and I see the sky, oh
I want to be up there, to see the world
I want to fly and see the world from its finest eye
See the world from its finest eye




I want to fly, even if I don't know how
I want to fly, even if I have no wings
