Story Behind The Song
Expression of a feeling I have when making and performing music that I think is relateable to life in general. About how when people analyze themselves they get depressed and feel like they wasted their lives, but how that is pretty much a ubiquitous feeling, so you should let it go.
Song Description
1st song of a concept album about flight, love, life, and tom hanks. This song is a revelation by the singer that he's wasted his life, but that feeling is married to an exuberance or relief about following your dreams.

Lyrics
I'm flying too high,
to stop and stare,
into your eyes
I don't want to fall down
i drank a glass of water
still I don't feel so fine,
go run tell your mother
or your father
they're so funny
aren't they?
from any direction
you've got such perfect eyes
and we're flying tonight,
so be prepared
you know your not scared
you could leave a msg at the beep
but i'm not there,
you wasted all your life,
you wasted all your life,
i know you're not scared
and I am just a singer
with some hot software
but you,
you wasted all your life,
you're wasted all your life
(I'm a little bit anxious
this isn't working out
could we go somewhere else?)
the sea is full of monsters this
house is haunted
I feel funny
yeah
we're going down
i don't need a lecture,
this is the perfect ride,
but i need someone else to drive
so be prepared
you know your not scared
you could leave a msg at the beep
but i'm not there,
you wasted all your life,
you wasted all your life,
i know you're not scared
and I am just a singer
with some hot software
but you,
you wasted all your life,
you're wasted all your life
