lyrics

I’ve been here one too many times before 
Just takes a smile for me to fall
Back in your arms, your love tangled in mine
We used to be so intertwined


I wanted to fly but you pulled me back in
Held too tightly, controlling my wings


I’m calling it
Calling it a day and I’m walking away 
Forever
I’m calling it
I’m calling you out, I won’t be pushed around 
I need better
Than you could ever give
So I’m calling it quits
Now I’ve faced the truth
No excuse
I’m calling it 
I’m calling it 


You kept me caged just to keep me quiet
stole my air, so you could breathe
I saw the bars and I forgot the words
To the song i used to sing



I wanted to fly but you pulled me back in
held me too tightly, controlling my wings


I’m calling it
Calling it a day and I’m walking away 
Forever
I’m calling it
I’m calling you out, I won’t be pushed around 
I need better
Than you could ever give
So I’m calling it quits
Now I’ve faced the truth
No excuse
I’m calling...


You up 
To say that I’m gone
I’m floating up up and away

No sorry’s
I’m done hanging on
I’m writing this song to say
I’m calling it
I’m calling it


I’m calling it
Calling it a day and I’m walking away 
Forever
I’m calling it
I’m calling you out, I won’t be pushed around 
I need better
Than you could ever give
So I’m calling it quits
Now I’ve faced the truth
No excuse
I’m calling it 
I’m calling it
