Flying from Fantasy Life by Begonia

Thought you might be dead by now
But here you are alive somehow
Been years since I’ve seen you around
Felt words from your mouth


Heard you were wanted by the law
I had to see just for myself
And when I pulled your picture up
I saw a sad and empty shell

Looked in your eyes for too long
Then I cried

Guess I was right
To no one's delight
The part I knew had died
That distant look in your eyes
Seems like you put up a fight too many times

Memory still holds its power
But I don’t hear your name and cower
I’ve turned myself from being sour
To letting softer feelings flower

I never thought I’d see the day
That I’d be praying for your health
But it feels hard to look away
From a face I knew so well

Woke up one morning
And pulled back the blinds

All of the anger I knew
Watched it float like a balloon into the sky
Droplets of shimmering dew
Clouds making shapes in the blue
Waving goodbye

Don’t want you to die
But I fear you dying
I hope you fly
I picture you flying
