Airplane mode
Hayd Lyrics

I'm wishing there was more time
I wish I had more time to enjoy life and appreciate the world.

To maybe catch another sunrise
Another day to live and experience everything life has to offer.

But I think I'm on the next flight
But I'm already moving on to the next adventure, without even going through my previous experiences.

A little late to press rewind, 'cause
It's too late to go back and relive my past life, because I've already transcended it.

My honesty is trending
I'm living life genuinely and transparently in the hopes of inspiring others.

My pocket's getting full
I'm becoming financially successful as a byproduct of living through my values.

But I still feel empty
However, I'm not content with my current situation and feel unfulfilled.

I know I should be flexing
I understand that I should be flaunting my success, as it's the norm.

Billion dollar bills
I should be 'flexing' my attainment of wealth and success.

But I'm not Mr. Brightside
But I'm not naturally an optimist and struggle to experience life's brighter moments.

I don't deserve a spotlight
Perhaps I don't believe I'm deserving of others' attention and admiration.

I'm dreaming on a red eye
I'm living life moment by moment and chasing my dreams with a restless, overnight state of mind.

As reality seems to fly by
As my dreams progress, it seems like my reality is being left behind.

I miss texting my best friends
I long for human connection and friendship, which keep me grounded in reality.

But my phone's on airplane mode
However, I've disconnected from my friends completely by turning my phone off.

And I feel so alone
And now, without the safety net of close friends, I feel isolated and exposed.

As I look out the window
As I stare off into the distance, reflective and lost in thought.

And see everyone waving below
And I realize that I'm high above, disconnected from everyone else waving below.

I wish you could see the view from nine clouds high
I wish I could share my experience with you and show you the view from my vantage point.

Instead of what you see at your nine to five
Instead of your mundane, monotonous everyday life, where you're stuck inside an office or factory from nine in the morning to five in the evening.

I know we swore we'd never leave each other's side
I remember the promises we made to each other, promising each other that our friendship would never falter.

But I must say goodbye
But now, I must depart on this adventure on my own without you.

Something this good can't come fast enough
I recognize that life's beautiful moments can be fleeting and we must cherish every moment of our beautiful lives.

But I'm getting kinda lost in the rush
But I'm also struggling to hold onto these beautiful moments, and feel like they're moving at a breakneck pace.

I'm not Mr. Brightside
Once again, I'm not always optimistic and happy-go-lucky, and still struggle with negative emotions.

I don't deserve a spotlight
And despite my personal accomplishments, I still feel like I don't merit attention or praise.

I'm dreaming on a red eye
I'm still up all night dreaming and chasing after my aspirations.

As reality seems to fly by
And as a result, it feels like reality is moving at unfathomable speeds, with everything happening at once.

I miss texting my best friends
I realize how important close human relationships are to me, but at the same time, I've isolated myself from them.

But my phone's on airplane mode
But now, I'm not even receiving any messages or notifications on my phone because I'm disconnected from the rest of the world.

And I feel so alone
And because of that, a sense of loneliness and isolation washes over me.

As I look out the window
Once again, I'm just sitting and staring out the window, lost in my thoughts.

And see everyone waving below
And again, I'm reminded of the people I'm disconnected from, waving below, disconnected in every way from my life and my dreams.
