Fear in Flight Lyrics

(somewhere up there)
somewhere up there
all so clear (up here)
suspended in mid (god) air
dependant on man (man/machine)
obscene
device

what price i pay to face my fears (my fears)
the shortest distance between two points
is years (up here, up here, up here, up here...)

it's not that deep, people say
it's not that deep (not that deep)
not that deep (that deep)

then why does sleep evade me?
lover's arms escape me?
only fear invades me
too swiftly, too easily
squeezing me, breath and heart
faith and identity
all (so clear up here, so clear up here, so clear up here...)
do i fear not flying, but the soaring?
what if i were to don waxy wings?
become to god not vulnerable
and soon become to comfortable
and soon become to powerful
in my personal ascention

soar too close to the sun
soar too close to the sun
reach my zenith
fall like icarus

will i like daedalus' son fall, plummet?
will i like daedalus' son fall, plummet?
will my summit be more like my hell?
or will i stay
bouyant (up here, up here, up here, up here....)

prayerful and fearless
knowing death is inevitable
learning life is more veritable

because if i am scared of dying
i cannot live

because if i am scared of dying
i cannot live (up here, up here, up here...)
