I’m not sure what direction to crawl.
And I don’t know if I can scale this wall

But I’m learning to fly for you
I’m learning to make it through
Through my storms

I’m not sure what to do now
But I’ll figure it out somehow
I seem to be stuck here
And I’m so afraid of what comes next.

But I’m learning to fly for you
I’m learning to make it through
Through my storms

I think I’ll take that chance
And trust that you won’t let me fall
I seem to be moving somewhere
Only now I can hear thunder

But I’m learning to fly for you
I’m learning to make it through
Through my storms

I think that I’m getting there
But I’m not sure when I’ll arrive
I think that I’ll get this done
And my fears will be overcome
