Too Afraid to Fly
I'm standing on the edge of a cliff
Everyone I know is waiting for me at the bottom
They've taken the leap, they've taken the plunge
They took a risk and they didn't fall
They flew
I want to take the leap. I want it so bad
I can already feel the wind in my hair, the rush I will surely feel when I finally jump
It's so close I can almost taste it
I reach my toes over the edge
I sit on the edge and dangle my legs off the side
And I whisper to myself, This is it
This is the day I'm finally going to fly
But everytime I almost lower myself over the edge, I back away
I've never wanted anything more than I want to take that leap of faith
I'm not afraid to fall. I know I won't fall
I can't jump off because I'm too afraid to fly
