Weightless, hovering,
Afraid to fall or dive in,
âcause we will either sink or swim.
Breathless, venturing,
Afraid to wager once a again,
âcause we will either lose or win.
But we're scared to risk it all,
âCause we know it hurts to fall,
Like we did when our doubt had its day,
But let's hold our breath now, dive in, swim away,
Show them that we wont sink.
Today our sails are set,
We might get lost at sea just chasing our flights of fancy,
But we'll follow the line where blue meets blue,
A calm sea will never make a sailor out of you.
Helpless, all on our own,
âcause the tide wont bring us home,
No, that is our fare all alone.
But we're just running with the flow,
To places we don't want to go,
To lives that we don't even know.
But we're scared to make the run,
âCause it's hard to stand as one,
In this world where the only way we see,
Is through the reflections of the people we meet.
But we're no man in the street, no.
Today our sails are set,
We might get lost at sea just chasing our flights of fancy,
But we'll follow the line where blue meets blue,
A calm sea will never make a sailor out of you.
Ain't it a shame that we lose our way on the run,
Ain't it a shame that we give up before we've begun.
Ain't it a shame that we lose our way on the run,
Ain't it a shame that we give up before we've begun.
Ohh ohh-ohh ohh-ohh
Ohh ohh-ohh ohh-ohh
Ohh ohh-ohh ohh-ohh
Ohh ohh-ohh ohh-ohh
Today our sails are set,
We might get lost at sea just chasing our flights of fancy.
