The Astronaut - Earthist

How do you claim to fly

with all that burden on?

Mind your feet,

you’re sinking underground

Baby I had to wait

several years before

I could see a real dawn

I’m gonna hit the thunder

and the noise will blow your mind

I rise instead of going under

but the sunlight doesn’t make me blind

How do you claim to fly

with all that ballast on your side?

It’s still on your side

Tell me now, tell me now, tell me now

how can I find your face in the crowd

Call me loud, call me loud, call me loud

If I wonder around

If you just stop and stare,

If you just stop and stare

You’ll se me everywhere,

You’ll se me everywhere

Look at me

I keep on walking on some no-surfaced floors

Gravity enchains my rules

and locks my doors

So I learn to give

a different weight to my soul

And wouldn’t you fall

in love with the view

of the sun and the moon?

They always glow

and invert their rules

just because they know

the sky is too small for them both

Tell me now, tell me now, tell me now

how can I find your face in the crowd

Call me loud, call me loud, call me loud

If I wonder around

If you just stop and stare,

If you just stop and stare

You’ll se me everywhere,

You’ll se me everywhere

You’ll never take me down
