Scott Weiland - If I Could Fly Lyrics




Take a rest and I'll take ya to
Where I'm goin, no one will notice
Take a breath and hold it for a few
We'll get there someday maybe next year
Hang around those lyin' silly games
When we were young and we broke the rules
No one noticed
It seems they helped us
Things have changed and we're bounded by the new
Way of living
Are you sinking
Hang around those lyin silly games
Hang around where they don't know your name
If I could fly I would pick you up and keep you safe from the headlights
If I could fly I would lift you up and pull you out of the mudslide
Hang around those lyin' silly games
Hang around where they don't know your name
If I could fly I would pick you up and keep you safe from the headlights
If I could fly I would lift you up and pull you out of the mudslide
When the clock strikes 4 grab an axe and break the ice
When the ground begins to shake
I think they're chasing you so run you will be safe
If I could fly I would pick you up and keep you safe from the headlights
If I could fly I would lift you up and pull you out of the mudslide

If I Could Fly

"If I Could Fly" was released on the 10th anniversary of the singer's passing.

Released on vinyl for Black Friday Record Store Day last week, the track was made available to stream via Primary Wave/Virgin today, December 3rd, 10 years to the day that Weiland died at the young age of 48.

Accordong to the Facebook post on Weiland's official page:
"To honor ten years since Scott Weiland's passing, we're releasing something truly special for the real fans, this is the first unheard song from Scott's archive since he left us. It is personal, raw and a reminder of the heart that ran through all his work. Scott's legacy spans Stone Temple Pilots, Velvet Revolver, a stack of awards, and more than 50 million albums sold. But it's songs like this that show why people stayed connected to him for decades. 'If I Could Fly' bridges two generations of listeners and gives back a piece of Scott that's been held close for 25 years."

The song was penned by the longtime Stone Temple Pilots singer in 2000 after the birth of his son, Noah, and balances uplifting verses of laid back acoustic guitar with a soaring rock chorus. -Consequence.net
