Farewell friends I'm leaving the gang
I'm tired of pretending I don't understand
That you're my filler, jailer
I cannot be caged so I'm turning the page
The rat race is on and you're stuck in the maze
Undergo your life, cover it with sweet glaze
Suppress your ambitions and throw them away
Keep telling yourself you're going through a phase
Run and run again
Don't look back for help
Dive into the depths
You're free
I heard you guys were still looking for me
Take those binoculars and look ahead it's me
Far from home, all alone
I'm on my own and I can't hear you moan
No pictures of you like you've never been there
Try to get near me and I'll shoot you midair
Probably feels like I'm having an affair
Watch me find success and complain it's unfair
Run and run again
Don't look back for help
Dive into the depths
I'm free
I fly above your relentless distress
So light, without you in my sights
No matter how long and no matter how far
The albatross is still at my door
Knocking and knocking til I gaze at it
Contemplating these memories
No matter how long and no matter how far
The albatross is still at my door
Knocking and knocking til I gaze at it
Contemplating these memories
No matter how long and no matter how far
The albatross is still at my door
Knocking and knocking til I gaze at it
Contemplating these memories
