On December 16th, 2016, TipoDual reposted the song to YouTube. But he still didn’t provide any information about any of the songs he posted but gave this one the placeholder name “Fly Me Away”.
In 2021, TipoDual came back and said the song originated from a USB flash drive made in August of 2014 of songs that played in a KFC restaurant in Moscow, Russia, the USB included multiple other unidentified songs.

On March 25th, 2024, Discord user Isle likely identified the song as Fly Me Away by Chris Ingram. They had found an archive of an MP3.com profile for Craig which included a song called Fly Me Away, but it’s unable to be played and there aren’t any available copies of the album the song was on. Another song by Craig called San Francisco is available online, and both singers sound identical.
On the same day, user Kushikyuba discovered a post on homerecording.com by Craig. People in the replies described Fly Me Away as having “a touch of country in it”, and as having other similarities to the unknown song. Despite lack of confirmation, the OP labeled both the WZS and YouTube posts as being solved.
Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Lots of words of wisdom fail me in this place
Well, maybe silence is the eden that we
Lost along the way
[Pre-Chorus]
Let me hear you speak
Let me see you move
It's the things you say
The things you do
Let me speak if only just to say
[Chorus]
Fly me away, fly me away
Fly me up so high
Let my hands become wings
Let me touch the sky
Fly me away
Be where you want me to be
Let me speak if only just to say
Fly me away
[Verse 2]
Over lips that speak of violence and of rage
Leave these castles in the sand that will
Grandly wash away
[Pre-Chorus]
Let me hear you speak
Let me see you move
It's the things you say
It's the things you do
Let me speak if only just to say
[Chorus]
Fly me away, fly me away
Fly me up so high
Let my hands become wings
Let me touch the sky
Fly me away
Be where you want me to be
Let me speak if only just to say
[Post-Chorus]
Fly me away so high
Let my hands touch the sky
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, let me hear you speak
Let me see you move
It's the things you say
It's the things you do
Let me speak if only just to say
[Chorus]
Fly me away, fly me away
Fly me up so high
Let my hands become wings
Let me touch the sky
Fly me away
Be where you want me to be
Let me speak if only just to say
Fly me away, fly me away
Fly me up so high
Let my hands become wings
Let me touch the sky
Fly me away
Be where you want me to be
Let me speak if only just to say
Fly me away, fly me away
Fly me up so high
Let my hands become wings
Let me touch the sky
Fly me away
Be where you want me to be
Let me speak if only just to say
Fly me away, yeah
[Outro]
Fly me away
