[Verse 1]
Tranquillised and I'm tired
I wanna be an outsider
Being the visualiser
Always first to get gone
Staying still is too high risk
On repeat and unfocused
Going up where it's cloudless
Flying close to the sun
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm letting go
Letting go
Of the controls
All it is now
Some place I don't know
[Chorus]
I navigate my mind
I am the pilot, yeah
Over the hills I climb
I am the pilot, yeah
Out of the turbulence
Into the quiet
In the arc of the climb
I am the pilot, I am the pilot
[Verse 2]
Cutting free from his harness
Getting out of this carcass
Fire me into the farness
Deeper now
Don't get mad at this body
Doing that is too easy
Close my eyes and see clearly
All around
[Verse 1]
Tranquillised and I'm tired
I wanna be an outsider
Being the visualiser
Staying still is too high risk
On repeat and unfocused
Going up where it's cloudless
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm letting go
Letting go
Of the controls
All it is now
Some place I don't know
[Chorus]
I navigate my mind
I am the pilot, yeah
Over the hills I climb
I am the pilot, yeah
Out of the turbulence
Into the quiet
In the arc of the climb
I am the pilot, I am the pilot
I am the pilot (Yeah)
(I am the pilot, yeah)
(I am the pilot, yeah, tonight)
I am the pilot (Yeah, tonight)
I am the pilot (Yeah, tonight)
I am the pilot (Yeah, tonight)
I am the pilot (Yeah, tonight)
[Outro]
(I am the pilot, yeah, tonight)
(I am the pilot, yeah, tonight)
I am the pilot (Yeah, tonight)
(I am the pilot, yeah, tonight, tonight)
