Story Behind The Song
Written during a huge writers block, and trying to describe my frustrations with pursuing music as a professional and dealing with everything else that life throws at you.
Song Description
A song about feeling good, no matter the cost and trying to make it work with a significant other. Finding the silver lining in any situation and trying to repeat that practice.

Lyrics
Verse 1:
I see the lights in your eyes
The same ones that fill up the sky
And you know that I just need time.
To empty this thought in my mind
Chorus:
Cause every time I go up, I don't want to come down again.
I'm trying to find a new place where I can be myself again.
I'm so high, I'm flying...to the next place
That I dive in to land, someday you'll understand.
Verse 2:
I've been thinking about, someway how
I could tell, tell you what its all about.
No I couldn't be, what you really need.
Now the past, is standing right in front of me.
But I know, better, to land in this weather and I ..
Think I'll stay up tonight.
Chorus:
Cause every time I go up, I don't want to come down again.
I'm trying to find a new place where I can be myself again.
I'm so high, I'm flying...to the next place
That I dive in to land, someday you'll understand.
Break:
Sometimes gravity is missing
And you don't need to pull me down
Sometimes love is in leaving
It makes it hard to come back down.
Chorus:
Cause every time I go up, I don't want to come down again.
I'm trying to find a new place where I can be myself again.
I'm so high, I'm flying...to the next place
That I dive in to land, someday you'll understand.
