A sense of falling over comes me
Beyond gravities arms I am free
Faster and faster I am descending
Like a roller coaster ride that’s never ending
I watch the clouds rush by
I watch the birds as they most gracefully fly
The city looks so tiny from up here
But slowly begins to grow as I draw near
Down down I fall out of control
Down down Somersaulting into a backwards roll
You’re not afraid ha this isn’t fear
I hear I voice whisper in to my ear
I look around but there’s no one to be found
Only myself, the clouds and the ever growing ground
Again the voice cry’s out its only pain
What’s pain ha just a nervous response in the brain
I close my eyes and breathe in
Is it from madness the voices begin?
I wish to slow down I wish to stop
But there’s no ways to pause this endless drop
The Ground seems to be come alive
I ask myself if there’s any chance I’ll survive
To the ground I’m about to arrive
All grace is stripped as I brace for the crash dive
The ground and I clash in a battle
The force is foreign and makes my bones rattle
The wind is sucked from my lungs
I’m left coughing, choking, talking in tongues
I told you fear wasn’t to be feared
For it’s natural to fear the ground as it neared
Closing your eyes doesn’t stop all
Ha holding your breath won’t reverse your fall
What is this voice that speaks reason to me?
The voice as clear as day but there’s no one to see
I am in your soul and in your mind
I am the one you’ll seek and when falling you’ll find
