Apollo Sunshine - Fear Of Heights Lyrics
I'm easing outOf a single file line,Possessed by early morning dew.And rays of light that shineThrough the tops of treesThe teachers herd us towards the busWith hands like dried up leavesNot like the greenSo high above and belowNow I am an airplaneoo-ee-oo-ee-oo.A moments hesitationIn the dream.This airplane's tainted by long living,But in this morning I am a child.With wings spread wide and weavingThrough the others,More than simply fearless, ICan catch the windAnd turn cartwheels through the trees.In a halo of lightReflecting offThe yellow busI catch the glaresFrom the grass.The children stareTheir knees are scabbed.Their chance to flyIs passing byAnd on their kneesSpread wrinkled lines.We all must dieLike petals wiltAnd who am ITo stand on stilts?But still obligedTo ask a question soundAs any for the askingWhile still floating above the ground.Do your children care to join me?No, we're all afraidAfraid of fright. I don't want to be aloneSuspended on paradeWith a fear of heights.
