Matt Wheatley - The Pilot Lyrics

Inches on a map
From where it all began
I was searching for something
Braving the unknown
Strange the place I'm in
But such a familiar face
Voice in the distance
I hear it say
Few will understand the risk you have to take.
If you work your whole life blind then time will slip away
Well I'd rather die than live afraid
To lose without a try
When they say it can't be done
I'll show them how to fly
Inches on a map
From the place that I called home
I'll leave my mark there
Before I'm gone
Few will understand the risk you have to take.
If you work your whole life blind then time will slip away
Well I'd rather die than live afraid
To lose without a try
When they say it can't be done
I"ll show them how to fly
Few will understand the risk I had to take
I was working my whole life blind
And time was slipping away.
But I'd rather die than live one day
To say I never tried
When they ask me "Did you live?"
They'll see it in my eyes
