... "Splat"?
Oct. 27th, 2007 12:38 am“Earthbound – for, not to, the earth”
All our lives, to death from birth
Spent trapped between the sky and earth
Life through time blurs in sweet haze
We can choose how to end our days
Dearest dearest, I’ll go with you
But there is so much that we’ve still to do
To soar and dive, to crash and burn
All these things we’ve left to learn
The land’s too flat – we’ll take the sky
At the very least it’s worth a try
Why settle for some steady crawl
We claimed our flight, we’ll claim our fall
Leave doubts behind in a nerveless heap
A leap of faith, let’s make the leap
In that moment, throw clutter clear
In headlong dive through the stratosphere
The laws of nature might have lied
They bend or break when I’m by your side
Then summit, plummet, wheeling, reeling
Everything compressed to feeling
And our hopes and fears prove all unsound
- There never was a ground
All our lives, to death from birth
Spent trapped between the sky and earth
Life through time blurs in sweet haze
We can choose how to end our days
Dearest dearest, I’ll go with you
But there is so much that we’ve still to do
To soar and dive, to crash and burn
All these things we’ve left to learn
The land’s too flat – we’ll take the sky
At the very least it’s worth a try
Why settle for some steady crawl
We claimed our flight, we’ll claim our fall
Leave doubts behind in a nerveless heap
A leap of faith, let’s make the leap
In that moment, throw clutter clear
In headlong dive through the stratosphere
The laws of nature might have lied
They bend or break when I’m by your side
Then summit, plummet, wheeling, reeling
Everything compressed to feeling
And our hopes and fears prove all unsound
- There never was a ground
