I've never been the one
Just step out of my comfort zone
Whenever I try
I am afraid to just let go

Don't know why I run
Don't know why I hide
Never let them know what I feel inside
Don't know why I'm scared
Just to take a chance
While I'm still standing here

Like a bird
I'm free to fly
Spread my wings and fly my life
Like a bird
I'm up so high
I'm out the cage, it's my time to shine
Like a bird
I'm free to fly
So tell me, tell me
Why don't I?

I've never been one to break free
'Cause I've always cared what everyone thinks of me

Don't know why I run
Don't know why I hide
Never let them know what I feel inside
I don't want to share
I don't want to run
This is not where I belong

Like a bird
Free to fly
Spread my wings and fly my life
Like a bird
I'm up so high
Out the cage, it's my time to shine
Like a bird
I'm free to fly
So tell me, tell me
Why don't I?
