Fly Lyrics - Tragically Hip

Seventy days to cross the ocean 

Seventy nights where no one's going to hear me fall 

Freddie Mercury, i've sometimes wished 

I'd never been born at all 

That's right 

I remain unphotographed, yeah 

I don't exaggerate my intelligence 

I might turn a broom into a tree 

But I'll never be one of them 

That's right 

I fly 

'Cause there's no why in getting beaten up by 

A guy 

Who cries before he fights

Can You Guess The Song By The Emojis? 

Linkin Park Honors Chester Bennington In The Emotional Video For 'One More Light' 

Watch Beck's Heroic New Music Video For 'Up All Night' 

I don't want them to see me like this 

The way they like to kick people when they're down 

You said, "Please stop worrying about this 

They stop kicking once you're down" 

That's right 

There's Mistaken Point, Newfoundland 

There's Moonbeam Ontari-ari-o 

There are places I've never been 

And always wanted to go 

That's right 

Fly 

'Cause woe betide a guy who just lives to fight 

Fly 

Love is to try die trying 

Fly, yeah, that's right 

Fly, yeah, that's right 

Try, love is to try die trying 

Photos 

Coastline rising out of the ocean 

Coastline rises like a pair of glowing thighs 

There's something down deep inside me 

Says where you been all my life 

Fly, turn your back, get your face in the sky 

Fly, love is to try die trying 

Try, left and right, across your mind 

Try, love is to try and die trying
