Maybe she's really aching for a "normal" life again. If that's the case, I wonder why she's still in the recording business >.> Hmmmmm
I'm thinking it's because she is afraid to going back to being alone again as she was for most of her childhood and is afraid of becoming a "nobody" again. (I'm sure that wouldn't actually happen, but I bet that is what her mind fears.) Hence the lyrics: "Even when I get tired of flying
I don't even have courage to rest my wing" - I believe that is referring to her fast release pace and no matter how tired it made her in the past she was always too afraid to rest from it.

I never thought that, lol. Her lyrics are too often on the dark side for me to think that.
