Why try? I know why

This feeling inside me says it's time I was gone

Clear head, new life ahead

I want to be king now, not just one more pawn



Fly by night away from here

Change my life again

Fly by night, goodbye my dear

My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend



Moonrise, thoughtful eyes

Staring back at me from the window beside

No fright or hindsight

Leaving behind that empty feeling inside



Start a new chapter, I find what I'm after

Is changing every day.

The change of a season's enough of a reason

To want to get away

Quiet and pensive, my thoughts apprehensive

The hours drift away

Leaving my homeland, playing a lone hand

My life begins today
