"Grow Wings And Fly" lyrics

Bye bye Shanghai
Bye bye Shanghai
Bye bye Shanghai
Grow wings and fly
Let's get real high
Let's get real high
Let's get real high
Transcend this life

I wanna drink from the beehive
I wanna jump from the tight wire
Like a moth into a fire
I'm gonna burn up on the pyre
Well, it's love at first sight
Moonstruck on this night
Sing a swan song on the lyre and fly away one last time
Yeah

When I first saw you lying there in wait
With your unearthed buried smile, I sing to my duckling
Yes, you must learn to use your wings
But it is I that will be taught by you to fly

The distorted view from my misty window has a thin ray of light that's got a peaking crescendo
The moon is a clock face that's tick, tick, ticking with a crooked smile
We're all in the rat race
Together we go the extra mile

Knock the surrounding buildings down
I'm calling out for help
I'm shedding my skin like a snake slithering
You gotta stop the overwhelming self-doubt
Catch me dancing in the summer rain with my tongue out
