Mmm How do you live like that, pulling rabbitts out of hats, making everybody mad mad mad? Why aren't you more like me? What you get is what you see, I could never be bad Tell me how Hey, not so loud, you can't say those things! Where's the proof? Hey, get off the roof, you don't have wings! As far as I can see as far as I can see as far as I can see Your destiny's waiting for you under your patterns and your excuses Your fear is what's keeping you here until you let go of your illusions They say one day will be worth all this suffering but I've learned from the past that the future don't work like that Run rabbitt run! Run rabbitt run! Run rabbitt run! Run rabbitt run! I ran into the desert, I ran so very far I ran until I couldn't and fell into your arms To think there was a time, to think there was a time Mmm, what does the madness of the saints sound like? Mmm, what does the madness of the saints sound like? Thank you for the pleasure, thank you for the pain thank God I figured out that we really are the same

Fly 02:43
I'm gonna leave that roof I'm gonna float above everyone that I love and I'm gonna come right back so I can bring you proof of magic, I, I, I'm gonna fly I'm gonna fly I'm gonna fly I'm gonna fly Just promise me you'll try Won't you promise me you'll try? I don't care if you think I'm posturing or that I've lost my mind I've gotta live my dreams, even if it means leaving you behind maybe it's true in part I've gone too far and I'm not coming back but that's what you give to have a fighting chance and I'm okay with that If it turns out I'm wrong, I'll write a song like I'm singing now saying I'm not afraid to make mistakes on my way to the clouds So when you see me up there, don't stop and stare you can do this too If you don't believe in me, that's fine 'cause I believe in you So promise me you'll try Promise me you'll try Try to fly

about

When I was little, Dad would take me to work with him. His boss was a guy named Tim - super nice and VERY patient with my endless little-girl questions.

One day I was using the company's printer paper to write a story. I don't remember what it was about, but there was a rabbit involved.
So I went up to Tim and asked, "How do you spell rabbit?" Without missing a beat, he said, "R-A-B-B-I-T-T."

That didn't sound right. I went to my Dad to verify, and he told me there was only 1 T. I explained that Tim said there were 2 T's, to which Dad replied, "That's just how Tim spells it."

I was amazed. Grown-ups were allowed to spell things however they wanted to?! I couldn't wait to be a grown-up!!!

Well now, here I am, all grown up. Which means I can finally spell RABBITT with two T's.
And so can you.
We are free, after all.
