Marian Call - Flying Feels Like Lyrics
Rapid City into Denver, Denver to ChicagoChicago into Houston into Phoenix into homeBlue into white and down to gray, now I see greenAnd every time we land, I swear I feel so childish and aloneCream into butterWater into wineTakes a little magicAnd a little time…(I hate to fly.)That very first prom night, how I floated to your carWith flowers and delusions tied so tight upon my wristsI remember how your hair smelled, how my heart beat, how you scared meInto clinging to the lawn with perfect prom nails & white-knuckled fistsI thought I'd float awayAnd I didn't want to goTumbling off the earth, into the deep, into the darkOut of controlBecause flying feels like falling, flying feels like fallingWhen I close my eyes…So I'll clutch the plastic armrests and I'll sway side to sideWith my seatbelt tight, eyes open wideTo get to you, I'll take this rideI'm lazy, but I like hard work, shoulder to the ploughA heavy head feels good in bed, but I don't sleep nohowAnd minutes into hours into staring at the wallMy mind will not surrender into darkness into deeply dream at allWater into wineTakes a little pressureAnd a lot of time…Flying feels like falling, flying feels like fallingWhen I close my eyes…Down I go.Every child knows how and why they're hatedI hid my papers from the class, and I tore up my tests'Til unfulfilled potential was my very own pet monsterAnd it beat me when I failed and when I didn't careAnd when I did my bestTo turn this rubbish into rhymeEvery time you travelIt takes so much courage, oh, and so much timeFlying feels like falling, flying feels like fallingWhen I close my eyes…Flying feels like falling and the altitude's appallingAnd my starboard engine's stallingAnd I dunno if I glideFlying feels like fallingOh the ground is callingCome down or I will break youWhat would make you think I'd let you in the sky?Ooh, to get to you I'll take this ride…
