In the fall of 2002, during a Latvian National Television golf tournament, three artists, Martin Freiman, Lauris Raynix and Yana Kay, started discussing the project and the trio F.L.Y. was born. Their song, “Hello from Mars”, was written by Martin and Lauris, and recorded soon afterwards.
Each individual F.L.Y. member has a successful musical career. Yana and Lauri are solo artists and have each released an album; Martin is lead singer of the band Tumsa, which has three albums to its credit.
Yana, Lauri and Martin have all participated separately in the Latvian Eurovision Song Contest preliminaries, but their big break – the chance to represent Latvia at the Eurovision Finals – came only this year, when they participated as a group.
After spending time together promoting their Eurovision Song Contest entry “Hello From Mars”, F.L.Y. started jamming and creating new songs. The result is a complete album, which will be released in Latvia at the beginning of May, and in Europe following the big night (May 24) in Riga.
Fly With Me
F.l.y. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Always the same, I never chose for this life
Don't know how to die
A sucker with drugs, gimme a pause
I need to stop, but I need my dose
I need to close my eyes and die
I'm gonna close my eyes tonight
I know that my death is near
For that I'm thankful, isn't that clear
Never wished to be out here
I switched to my last gear, I know I will disappear
Somehow I will disappear
Somehow I will disappear
Always the same, I never chose for this life
Always complaining, but I don't know how to die, I
A sucker with drugs, gimme a pause
I need to stop, but I need my dose
I need to close my eyes and die
I'm gonna close my eyes tonight
I know that my death is near
For that I'm thankful, isn't that clear
Never wished to be out here
I switched to my last gear, I know I will disappear
Somehow I will disappear
Somehow I will disappear
The song "Fly With Me" by F.l.y. expresses a raw and honest portrayal of a person's struggle with drug addiction and the desire to escape their life. The lyrics convey a sense of hopelessness and resignation as the singer faces the consequences of their addiction. The opening lines, "Always the same, I never chose for this life, Don't know how to die," reveal the vulnerability and despair of the singer, who feels trapped in their circumstances and powerless to change.
Throughout the song, the singer grapples with the conflicting emotions of wanting to stop using drugs but also feeling dependent on them. They plead for respite from their addiction, saying "A sucker with drugs, gimme a pause, I need to stop, but I need my dose." However, they also acknowledge that their addiction is leading them towards their own demise, saying "I know that my death is near, For that I'm thankful, isn't that clear, Never wished to be out here."
The repeated refrain "Somehow I will disappear" adds to the sense of resignation and futility, implying that the singer sees no way out of their situation other than death. Overall, "Fly With Me" offers a haunting portrayal of addiction and the harsh realities of those who struggle with it.
