I lost perspective of who I was, I hit the wall I knew that it would take a lot but it took it all No you don't come this far to turn around, covered too many miles No you don't get this close to breaking down just to close your eyes While the world sleeps under my feet tonight I'm chasing myself in the sky While the world sleeps under my feet tonight I'll be up here learning to fly When you know that you can't let go And your heart already knows Sure to hurt but it's worth it to be burned 'Cause one day you'll get home Still it feels like I am always on the red eye This time around it's not even about getting paid I'm just an addict for the moment when the magic is made And when you are who you are who you really are It can put you through hell Spend a day in the skin that you want to live in To see how it feels While the world sleeps under my feet tonight I'm chasing myself in the sky While the world sleeps under my feet tonight I'll be up here learning to fly When you know that you can't let go And your heart already knows Sure to hurt but it's worth it to be burned 'Cause one day you'll get home Still it feels like I am always on the red It feels like I am always on the red eye I'm finding myself these days Looking down from a window shade I'm counting lies on hours Just when I should be counting sheep Truth is I can't complain I do it over and over again and over again While the world sleeps under my feet tonight I'm chasing myself in the sky While the world sleeps under my feet tonight I'll be up here learning to fly While the world sleeps under my feet tonight I'm chasing myself in the sky While the world sleeps under my feet tonight I'll be up here learning to fly When you know that you can't let go And your heart already knows Sure to hurt but it's worth it to be burned 'Cause one day you'll get home Still it feels like I am always on the red It feels like I am always on the red eye
