Bye bye Shanghai
Bye bye Shanghai
Bye bye Shanghai
Grow wings and fly
Let's get real high
Let's get real high
Let's get real high
Transcend this life

I wanna drink from the beehive
I wanna jump from the tightwire
Like a moth into a fire
I'm gonna burn up on the pyre
Well, it's love at first sight
Moonstruck on this night
Sing a swan song on the lyre and fly away one last time
Yeah

When I first saw you lying there in wait
With your unearthed buried smile, I sing to my duckling
Yes, you must learn to use your wings
But it is I that will be taught by you to fly

The distorted view from my misty window has a thin ray of light that's got a peaking crescendo
The moon is a clock face that's tick, tick, ticking with a crooked smile
We're all in the rat race
Together we go the extra mile

Knock the surrounding buildings down
I'm calling out for help
I'm shedding my skin like a snake slithering
You gotta stop the overwhelming self doubt
Catch me dancing in the summer rain with my tongue out
