Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Flight is a beautiful word
Flowered with consonance, that's what I'll follow
Forever
I am a beautiful bird
Fluttered and floating, swollen and hollowed
For Heaven
[Verse 2]
Do what you want with me
Lost in your captivity
Learning capacity
For make believin' everything is really hangin' on
[Verse 3]
Slippin' away from the party
Totally vacant, everyone gone from their body
You're outside kissing another
She was a friend of mine, I was surprised to discover
I wrapped my arms around her
She was a beautiful figure
There are no enemies
We're make believin' everything is really hangin' on
[Verse 4]
There is a castle that stands
High in the canyon, the blue knights are crying together
A child is holdin' my hand
She is directing the red crystal pine with a feather
[Verse 5]
Do what you want with me
Lost in your captivity
Learning capacity
For make believin' everything is really hangin' on
Really hanging on
Really hanging on
