Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
no navigator to guide my way home
unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
condition grounded but determined to try
can't keep my eyes from the-circling-skies
tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer.
my grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air.
across the clouds I see my shadow fly
out of the corner of my watering eye
a dream unthreatened by the morning light
could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
There's no sensation to compare with this.
suspended animation, a state of bliss
can't keep my mind from the circling-sky.
tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
