lyrics

There's a certain kind of silence.
When a strange mental alliance, comes over me.
It's a feeling I'm not used to.
But it makes me feel like I can, do anything.

And if I'm not watching, I just might be, swept right off my feet.
And if I'm not careful, it just might pull, me out of my seat.

So, up I fly, into the night, and over all my fears.
It seems they've had a hold of me, for most of my good years.
I suppose to juxtapose, It would only bring me down.
So, up I fly, and wave goodbye, to worries and the ground.

I try to remain patient.
Cause I know that inspiration's, coming my way, (Coming to stay)
All I have to do is listen,
And the muse that I've been missin' helps me convey. (All I wanna say)

And you know that it's not, something I can, easily explain.
And It's not a feeling, you can really beckon, force, or feign.

So, up I fly, into the night, and over all my fears.
It seems they've had a hold of me, for most of my good years.
I suppose to juxtapose, It would only bring me down.
So, up I fly, and wave goodbye, to worries and the ground.

Maybe it's the moonlight, or the way the shadows dance,
Upon the walls.
Or maybe it's just something, you can't qualify,
Or quantify at all.

So, up I fly, into the night, and over all my fears.
It seems they've had a hold of me, for most of my good years.

So, up I fly, into the night, and over all my fears.
It seems they've had a hold of me, for most of my good years.
I suppose to juxtapose, It would only bring me down.
So, up I fly, and wave goodbye, to worries and the ground.
