lyrics

If I asked you a question and let it sit
And waited for an answer would you answer it
All my wishes like fishes in a jar
Looking at your choices tells me who you are

I walk the city counting trees
I recognize the same drunks that she sees
All my birds are singing in a cage
Looking like a hipster doesn’t hide your age

But no matter how you fly
You’re way up high

So if I open and let it show
You’d see what hasn’t burned out is just a glow
But all my lights are slowly coming on
Put another match to wick before the fires gone

No matter how you fly
You’re way up high

All my wishes like fishes finally free
Swimming from the shore line out to the open sea

No matter how you fly
You’re way up high
No matter how high you fly
No matter how, when, or why
I’m going for the pie in the sky
I want to be up high
No matter how high you fly
No matter if you laugh or cry
In stormy or clear blue skies
You are way up high
And no matter how you fly
You’re way up high
