My friend Rob's song, Let It All Out
Think of the miles
That spread far and wide
The day that I left you
To live for yourself
And you thought of the times
When I can't say I tried
I'll come back and get your life
Down from the shelf
I'll check in to fly
And think of the light
That leaves me with nothing
To do but return
I'll make sure that next time
I'm flying my kite
I won't look for long
So I won't have to learn
I won't have to learn
And I can spread my wings
And let it all out
You look at the edge
You hang from the thread
You think of the days
And the years you'd lost
When all of the world
Just ignored what you'd said
Forgetting it's you
Who we needed the most
I wake up at seven
I go for a walk
And just for a bit
The world's not my concern
And the car's coming later
Remember our talk
I'll take it tomorrow
Then you'll have to learn
And you'll have to learn
You can't spread your wings
And let it all out
There's more we can burn
There's more we can burn
We just tied your wings
And let it all out
Let it all out
We can't let you die
But we won't let you live
The day's getting later
The night starts to turn
And then we'll be going
To sea in a sieve
The water gets higher
And then we'll all learn
And then we'll all learn
We can't spread our wings
And let it all out
And the sky starts to burn
The sky starts to burn
'Cause we spread our wings
And let it all out
Let it all out
Let it all out
Let it all out
