Carry Me Away

Hear my story, remember my words
Don't you worry; we can fly like birds
High in the sky like a dream forgotten
Escape this world that's turned rotten

I put one thousand percent of who I am
Into something that could very well be pretend
But I wish, and I hope, for something more
Something better than a life of war

More or less I still convey
Praying for my wish to come true every day
But still I sit and wait for them
'Cause, even to me, it's just pretend
