Waking up again another sleepless night
|
Climbing taller buildings more dreams of flight
|
In a pool of sweat not knowing what to do
|
No more earth-bound feelings a diff'rent point of view
|
|
Moment of truth he heads towards the building
|
His glazed eyes stare vacantly following his feelings
|
No turning back the door's already shutting
|
Standing on his tiptoes to reach the nineteenth button
|
|
To miss a grasping hand
|
(I'm falling again)
|
And squash a passer-by
|
(I'm falling again)
|
He wanted to see some evidence
|
(I'm falling again)
|
That he could really fly
|
|
Balanced on the edge only time could tell
|
Some say he was pushed, others say he fell
|
Standing on that rooftop his brain told him 'no'
|
But all the dreams in nights before told him he must go
|
|
To miss a grasping hand
|
(I'm falling again)
|
And squash a passer-by
|
(I'm falling again)
|
He wanted to see some evidence
|
(I'm falling again)
|
That he could really fly
|
|
His questions and himself
|
Nearly fell on stony ground
|
He could've embarrassed his family
|
Who watched him from the crowd
|
|
Balanced on the edge only time could tell
|
Some say he was pushed, others say he fell
|
|
To miss a grasping hand
|
(I'm falling again)
|
And squash a passer-by
|
(I'm falling again)
|
He wanted to see some evidence
|
(I'm falling again)
|
That he could really fly
|
(I'm falling ...)
