Lyrics

Direction unknown
No certainty
So where is the path
That feels right for me
How did I get here
It's quite bizarre
I cannot believe
I ever got this far
I'm flying blind
If you must know
I make it up
As I go
Well here I am now
Not much to lose
A little perplexed
And slightly bemused
I floated along
On wing and prayer
How on earth could I fly
But now I'm in the air
I'm flying blind
If you must know
I make it up
As I go
And time will tell
If I survive
So wish me well
Flying blind
I am so out of depth
And so very confused
I can only hope like hell
'cause I haven't a clue
If only you knew the truth
You'd see me differently
Or would I find you're much like me
And just guessing too
Just flying blind
Half the time
It looks like I'm calm
Externally
But inside's a mess
I doubt you will see
Who knows what's ahead
What the gods intend
I'm sure it's alright
It'll work out in the end
I'm flying blind
If you must know
I make it up
As I go
It could be worse
I'm still alive
It's not so bad
Flying blind
Half the time
