I am drowning in worry this blurry December
I don't want this to bleed on out into next year
In a daze I am trying, struggling to remember
How it was when my heart left no room for fear

I just don't want the world to leave me behind
At least wait till I put on my wings
Who doesn't long for bigger things

But I am anxious and envious of people who live
Like they'll die tonight
And i'm careless and restless
And I wish I could just close my eyes
And fly

Winter comes and it goes and I won't ever feel it
All I have is this jacket, and a mildly cool breeze
And I know life's been swell, i've been treated well
But for once I just want to be brave
Dive into the sea, ride the waves

But I am anxious and envious of people who live
Like they'll die tonight
And i'm careless and restless
And I wish I could just close my eyes
And fly
I will fly tonight
Wish I could fly tonight

I am drowning in worry this blurry December
I don't want this to bleed on out into next year

But I am anxious and envious of people who live
Like they'll die tonight
And i'm careless and restless
And I wish I could just close my eyes
And fly

I will fly tonight
Wish I could fly tonight
