How Would That Feel

"How Would That Feel" was a song performed by La'An Noonien-Singh when USS Enterprise hit a subspace fold in 2259. She mused about leaving behind her fear and being open about her emotions, including those regarding James Kirk. (SNW: "Subspace Rhapsody").

Lyrics

Did I hear that right
Did she just shine a spotlight
On her innermost feelings
Like it's no big deal
Say whatever, whenever you like

You'd presume with all my mastery
To pursue flights of fancy, easy
Who am I kidding, I've never found that part of me
'Cause I'm designed to color inside the lines

Cool and methodical
Way too responsible
I can't help it

Sometimes I peek through a keyhole
And see people happy
I admit

It might
Be time to changе my paradigm
If only I can let go of the wheel

My fear rеplaced with total faith
I'm fiercely free and really real
Flying blind
How would that feel?

This all makes me so uncomfortable
I want to let go, be vulnerable
Who am I kidding, I've never
Met that side of me

In my defense
The truth has a consequence
I won't watch the whole thing
Spin out of control
If I have the chance

It might
Be time to change my paradigm
If I can only let go of the wheel

My fear replaced with total faith
I'm fiercely free and really real
Flying blind
How would that feel?

In another time
We had a life together
Could time repeat
Or will it unravel
Be careful what you start

Make one mistake and
Blow it all apart
Or worse
Break my own heart

Who am I kidding
I've never found that part of me

It might
Be time to change my paradigm
If only I can
Let go of the wheel

It's nice
To dream that I could change my mind
Deep down, I know
I will never let go

My fear is staked
I have no faith
Contented freedom is not real

Flying blind
How would that feel?
